Hobbies & Interests

🏐 I love staying active with sports like beach volleyball, padel, table tennis, and clear my mind with vinyasa yoga. 🧗‍♂️ When I'm not on the court, you can find me bouldering and pushing my limits on the climbing wall.

🍜 I'm very curious by nature and love trying foods from all over the world.

📸 I'm passionate about photography and creating travel videos to capture the beauty of the places I visit. Check out my visual journey on Instagram @fvphotons

🎸 Music is another passion of mine - I play guitar and love to experiment with different sounds and styles.

🔨 In general, I love to build things! Whether it's crafting something beautiful with wood 🪵 or diving into electronics and IoT projects using the wireless ESP8266 module 📡. There's something incredibly satisfying about bringing ideas to life with your own hands.
