Furthermore, I strongly believe in #FreeCulture (under which are #CreativeCommons, #OpenKnowledge, #FLOSS, and related). You will also occasionally see me sharing and talking about #Privacy and #Security.

My first #Fediverse identity was in 2008, when it was still called #identiverse (the former was coined sometime 2010–2012). I used to run a public #Friendica instance for the Philippines, and had my own solo #Hubzilla instance. (#DidYouKnow The Philippines is the #SNS capital of the world since 2008. [1] [2])

I love to read #books. My first was Book 5 of the original #CYOA entitled, “The Mystery of Chimney Rock” when I was around four (I still have the book somewhere with a missing cover). By fourteen, I enjoyed reading a non-fiction book entitled simply as “Brain”, and dreamed of becoming a neuroscientist, which sadly remained a dream.

My longest read were #PeterFHamilton's “Pandora's Star” and “Judas Unchained” (more or less 1,000 pages each). My number one favourite is #LynnKurland's “Dreams of Stardust” (I even bought every copy I saw and gave it away).

When it comes to genre, I read anything. In the classics, I love #JaneEyre by Charlotte Brontë. I also read #NeilGaiman's “American Gods”. But I do have genres I favour more than others: #ScienceFiction and #Fantasy. To be more specific, science fiction and fantasy with #TimeTravel and #ParallelWorld elements, if the author can combine it together, even better (like Lynn Kurland's novels: #scifi + fantasy + #romance and sometimes with #paranormal too).

That said, my taste in live-action shows is somewhat similar. And the more complex and/or engaging the story is, the more I love it. Some examples are:

#Sports. I am a #runner. Well, not a professional runner. I run for #health and #fitness. I am also planning on doing #cycling again (my last was during my High School years). My first love was #football, or what Americans call #soccer. I also love #swimming, but what is close and dear to me is #Archery, in particular classic Asian archery, and Japanese archery called #Kyudo (#弓道 #きゅうどう #Kyujutsu). A must.

#Games? This one is a long history. Who doesn't love games, right? To sum it up, I started with Nintendo's “Game & Watch”, then “Family Computer”. I also was able to experience playing in Atari and MSX; as well as table-top #arcade machines. My favourite games are: “Super Mario Bros.”, “#Bomberman”. As well as, “Curse of the Azure Bonds” (#ForgottenRealms) and the Krynn series (#DragonLance) by TSR, “Sim Farm”, “Sim City”, “#PrinceOfPersia”, “#ManiacMansion”, “Neverwinter Nights”, “Eye of the Beholder”, “#Ultima” series, and the Carmen Sandiego franchise, for the PC.
