      Hi Ri,

      I was very young when I thought I wanted to be an austronaut. I think that over time my interests changed. I have always been curious and open to new experiences and different fields. I considered studying aerospace engineering at one point but ended up in mechanical engineering because I thought it would be more versatile and would leave more career scenarios open.
      I am still a big fun of space, science fiction and follow with great enthusiasm NASA and ESA missions. I didn’t become an austronaut but definitely kept my passion for space 🙂
