About Me

I am a curious and imaginative individual, always eager to explore new ideas and perspectives. My curiosity drives me to constantly seek knowledge and understanding, pushing me to question the world around me and explore the unknown. This mindset extends into many areas of my life, particularly my fascination with technology. Technology is not only a tool but a gateway to innovation, creativity, and the future. I stay updated on the latest trends and advancements, following news about emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and augmented reality. This allows me to keep pace with the fast-evolving tech landscape, and I love experimenting with new tools and software to see how they can be applied in practical or creative ways.

For me, technology isn't just a passive interest. I actively engage with it, whether by testing out the latest apps, exploring new software platforms, or learning about advancements in fields like robotics or blockchain. I enjoy diving into the technical side of things—understanding how systems work, finding ways to improve them, or thinking about their potential societal impacts. This hands-on approach satisfies my need for exploration and keeps me engaged with the cutting-edge developments shaping the world today.

Aside from my love for technology, I am also an avid coin collector. Coin collecting, while seemingly unrelated to my tech interests, offers a unique blend of history, artistry, and storytelling. Each coin in my collection tells a story, whether it's the country of origin, the era it was minted in, or the historical figures it represents. I find joy in researching the historical significance of each coin, learning about the cultural and political context surrounding its creation. From ancient Roman coins to more modern pieces, my collection serves as a tangible connection to the past. The attention to detail in coin design and the craftsmanship involved also appeal to my aesthetic sensibilities.

When I’m not immersed in technology or expanding my coin collection, I indulge my love for reading. I consider myself a passionate reader, and my literary interests span across genres. I love science fiction for its ability to stretch the boundaries of what is possible, taking me on imaginative journeys into future worlds and technological utopias (or dystopias). On the other hand, I find historical fiction fascinating for the way it weaves real events with the imaginative reconstruction of the past, allowing me to experience different cultures, time periods, and viewpoints. Both genres, though seemingly different, stimulate my curiosity and provide a rich tapestry of stories that inspire me to think beyond my immediate experiences.

These interests—technology, coin collecting, and reading—complement my curious and imaginative nature. They offer a way for me to explore different facets of life, whether by understanding the future, connecting with the past, or simply escaping into a good story. Each pursuit fuels my desire for knowledge and keeps me engaged with the world, always looking for the next thing to discover or learn.

Comment: Thank you very much for this great zine, very interesting. I love the idea of ​​having included a coin in the mail. I collected coins when I was a child and I kept a few coins sent by Asian correspondents but I never received one from Dubai, nor any mail from there! I am very interested in the manufacture of coins and I recently discovered the artisanal manufacture in the Middle Ages. Fascinating!
