Sarah83 Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Hi! I saw Bryan's post about know each other on a more personal level. But no one start some topics... I'm new here, I'm new in LV and now I like to know something about all the nice people here they helped me so far So, what are you doing if you don't programming? What are your hobbies? And from where are you from? (Maybe you born somewhere else as you live now) About me, I'm 21 years old and live in Sachsenheim. This is near Stuttgart / Germany. I was born in Leonberg, near Stuttgart, too. After school I do an apprenticeship as IT specialist for 3 years. In this time I worked with Lotus Notes / Domino. In this time I learn HTML by myself. I'm not perfect, but I know many things Then I made a practical for webdesign. I created a website for a company, where I'm working until today. This company, Euro Avionics, make navigation systems for helicopters. In my free time I spend a lot of time with my car (but with my boyfriend and other friends, too ) My cars are my biggest hobby, I have two BMW E30. Some pictures here My car Then, I like animals and spend a lot of time with my two budgies and tree turtles. Some other hobbies: photographing, drawing, shopping , playing on pc, swimming... So, now you know a little bit more about me :beer: Quote Link to comment
Michael Aivaliotis Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 I know Bryan is another car lover here. Personally, I really don't get it. How can somebody spend so much money on a car. I guess that's why it's called a hobby. It must be great living in Germany since it's easier to have a BMW as a car. Here in North America, they are called imports of course and are really expensive. If you had to choose between your boyfriend and your cars, who would you pick? Quote Link to comment

If you had to choose between your boyfriend and your cars, who would you pick? 1426[/snapback] Yes, it costs a lot of money. Especially the color of my summer car, the color changes in the sun Of course we don't have to pay for import but we pay the make of car. Mercedes, BMW and Audi are expensive, too. Some Asian cars are much cheeper, with every extras like air condition. I live near two car factories, Mercedes and Porsche, Porsche is now nearer. Hmmm, I think this decision would not come. He is a car lover, too, but his favorite is Audi. We go to BMW and VW/Audi meetings or shows. But if this question should come in future i would pick my boyfriend :thumbup: A car can't give me love Quote Link to comment
evargas Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Hi all; I currently live in the US. I born in Puerto Rico. My primary language is Spanish. I like video games, electronics and music. I have a hobby music studio and electronic workshop at my basement. I haven't done any electronic lately, though. I am happily married. Getting married was one of the most wonderful things that happened in my life, if not the most wonderful. Now, recently a miracle happened: we had a baby. My beautiful daugther Elena born in March of this year. Certainly, a baby is really a miracle. That's it for now. Quote Link to comment

If you had to choose between your boyfriend and your cars, who would you pick? 1426[/snapback] I've just always been into cars, ever since I was a little kid. Taking a drive is relaxation to me, driving a car with power and/or handling is just plain fun at times (so long as you're safe and sensible with it). My chevelle was a father/son project that started when I was 15. 10 years later, I still have plans in the works for additional things to add, or things I can't afford at the moment (i.e. new engine). There are also a lot of other vehicles I'd like to have as projects. Primarily older ones. For some reaosn, taking something old and neglected and fixing it up new just seems so rewarding upon completion and enjoyable in-process. Especially when you have someone working on it with you. That's why I like working on cars and doing home improvements, etc. Working on cars is also theraputic for me, even if it's not my own. It always has been for some reason. I've done work on friends' vehicles and only charge money for parts and ask for something to drink and possibly something to eat when I'm done. Quote Link to comment
