INTERESTS

INTERESTS & HOBBIES

As a perpetual student of software/web development, I embark on thrilling adventures abroad whenever I can (because debugging code isn't quite the same as exploring ancient ruins!).

When I find myself confined indoors, I dive deep into the captivating world of Japanese cinema and TV shows to keep my Japanese skills sharp. I'm also a skilled builder and fixer of RC cars and planes, ensuring endless fun for my little one.

I enjoy growing indoor plants, adding a touch of nature to my tech-filled life, and gaming with my son, where we team up for epic virtual adventures.

And let's not forget I'm deeply committed to programming, with a permanent seat in the technology realm. Oh, and did I mention I'm also a seasoned chef and former restaurant owner? The kitchen is my sanctuary, where my culinary creations become works of art.
