Hobbies​

One of my favorite hobbies is home automation using Home Assistant. The code is available at https://gitlab.com/davidpuziol/homeautomation.

Another hobby I really enjoy is 3D printing. I like creating things and modeling when I don't have anything else to do or study. I still need to paint the things I print, but what I lack is time. I have an Ender 3 v2 that's already fully modified - I don't even know if I can call it an Ender 3 anymore.

I enjoy watching good movies. I can't keep up with TV series anymore due to lack of time, so I avoid starting them, but when someone recommends something, I usually take a look.

My playlists only have old songs. I think I'm too old for music or I like living in the past.

I used to enjoy gaming, but after becoming the father of a little one who never sits still, it's hard to find time for that. It's been about 4 years since I last knew what a game was. I enjoy following chess championships through some YouTube channels I follow.

I really enjoy going to the countryside and spending time in nature to escape the concrete world. I'm trying to automate some things there too.

Coffee​

It's my fuel. I enjoy drinking good espressos throughout the day.

I bought a machine to improve my coffee skills. This isn't just a machine, it's a mini barista workstation like ME! It's a lie but it's true.

This is my setup here, but my dream is this rocket
