One Amazing Thing I've Done
Programmed in paint ;)
Teach, Learn, Share
Practical skills: I've worked a lot of different jobs, electric and electronic devices service, construction work, teaching, plumbing, carpentering, gardening, handyman, etc. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics Engineering in 2011 and then I worked for two years at a German automotive company. I then decided to study some more in the field of sustainability so I went to the Netherlands to study a Master in Sustainable Energy Technologies at the TU Delft. I also have some experience in automation, programming and repairing all kinds of stuff. I worked for 3 months in a permaculture garden in the city of Delft. Also during the past 6 months I did volunteering work in different organic farms and permaculture institutes in Scotland, Wales, England, Romania and Bulgaria. Fun skills: cooking vegetarian Mexican cuisine, playing piano and guitar, football...
My Interests
I'm passionate about sustainability (sustainable energies, permaculture, organic farming, natural building, et caetera). I love traveling the world and keep on learning from people and nature. Doing volunteering work. Playing music on the piano and on the guitar. Playing football, swimming, bicycling, and doing almost all kinds of sports. Listening to music, watch movies and documentaries, read, meditate...
