<h3>More about me</h3>
<p>I am 43 years old. Much of my professional life has taken place in Latin America. More specifically, I worked in Nicaragua and in Peru. My field is development aid. I have worked for NGOs, aid agencies and private companies. I also owned a restaurant once. I am fascinated by small and medium enterprises owned and run by women in Latin America. I speak several languages fluently. Currently, I am back home in Europe and I am looking for a job. I am learning how to code because I believe it would enhance my chances to find a job. Tech skills are important nowadays. Besides, coding is interesting.</p>
