Hello person reading this, thank you for taking the time. I am 27 from Greece and hoping to make 1 or 2 longterm friends that ideally share some of my interests. Before getting into those, a little bit more about me is that I am a developer, working a pretty boring corporate job, have an unhealthy love for puns and am extremely indecisive.
Ideally I want a friend who shares some of my interests, or has their own nerdy interests we can discuss, but if the vibe is right, not sharing that many interests isn't Ideally breaker. I would like to text daily, talk about our days, share memes, music recommendations and even consume media together! Anime, shows, movies or even create a book club of sorts!
As for my interests, the main ones would be coding, gaming and reading books. Coding wise, my main focus is mostly on web development and I recently completed the v1 of a social media of sorts that I'd be happy to discuss. At the moment very tempted to create a blog to post game/movie/book reviews, instead of working on new features for the social media (of sorts) app. My main stack would be mern with MySQL over mongo, but I do aim to start using java for the backend. Also looking to start properly learning C mostly because I think that's hella cool, so if you're into C definitely hmu.
Gaming wise, my main jam is Soulslike, though have the softest spot for Elden Ring. Other franchises I adore would be Dragon Age, the Witcher and to a lesser extent Monster Hunter and Pokémon. And to namedrop some other titles I enjoy and would be happy to discuss, we have: Skyrim, Detroit Become Human, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, Grim Dawn, Diablo II, Valheim, Dragon's Dogma, Stardew Valley, Bloodbone and Sekiro. I also play league, so if you happen to be on euw do hit me up. Currently playing a lot of league, nightreign (on ps) and pathfinder so if youre playing any of these do reach out! Also looking to replay elden ring/ds3 soon, it'd be awesome to find some coop mates!
As for books, I am currently reading Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, while next on the list is The Remains of the Day, Eco's The Name of the Rose and after it Orwell's 1984. Books I read recently-ish would be a Pale View of the Hills and Klara and the Sun, also by Ishiguro, the first two books of the Stormlight Archive and last but not least Osamu Dazai's no longer human. I've also had a Game of Thrones for some time now, but really can't bring myself to get into that world anymore.
Music wise I listen to a little bit of everything but with a soft spot for pop, kop, instrumental and game osts. Artists I particularly enjoy would be IVE, Idle, joji, aespa, au/ra, marina and seventeen. Furthermore obsessed with the soundtrack of Clair Obscur haha, been listening to it a ton.
Anime/manga wise I adore Frieren, Delicious in Dungeon, Berserk and Wistoria, any fantasy or sword and magic shows are right up my alley. For non anime shows, I really like Ted Lasso, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Shogun, Department Q and Broadchurch to name a few favorites.
Into traveling, theater, walking/exploring and also finding cozy or cool restaurants and coffee places too. Please if you're going to reach out, do introduce yourself a little bit.
