Sport & the outdoors

Being out in nature, hiking, skiing, a bike up a mountain, playing team sports; any time with friends and family is an essential counterpoint to a life in tech for me.

I really enjoy running or the gym for some alone time, but generally I prefer the opportunity to connect with people. I lived in Spain for a few years and Padel or Tennis was such a great way to meet people, practice the language and learn more about the culture.

Once again design often adds to my enjoyment. Clever golf courses become about the mental challenge of mapping out your approach more than focusing on your shots. And of course I have a huge soft spot for some of the newer and classic drip.
