Besides Work or Research
I truly enjoy any kind of problem solving, tinkering, or experimentation activities. Not necessarily related to computers, but really anything where I can also get creative and crafty. Cooking comes to mind first, but that also includes various DIY projects. For instance, I designed and sewed my own custom frame bags to fit on my bike.
When I grow tired of sitting at my desk, working on my computer, or just being indoors, I usually go outside and do stupid things:
- Cycling: (road, MTB, touring & bikepacking holidays)
- Running: (road & trail)
- Hiking: (from day-hikes, to weeklong alpine backpacking trips)
- Skiing and Snowboarding: (resort-only, for now)
I don’t do any of those competitively — just for leisure, on my own or with friends. At least once a day, to preserve my sanity.
Cities are boring, remote places are beautiful.
I might someday log here the routes and trips I liked doing the most — you know, just for bragging purposes, ‘cause ima show-off.
At some point, for some reason, I also learned how to ride weird Freeline Skates on flat ground and downhill.
As a kid and teenager, I was also fond of gymnastics, tennis and judo, which I practiced in sports clubs.
I also played music for many years: Percussion Instruments (drums, marimba, timpani, and various other orchestral percussions).
