Since 2016 was 10 years ago and this whole online throwback trend is going around, I felt like asking. In 2016, I finished 3rd grade and started 4th grade. Fast forward to now, I graduated high school last year, started a distance learning bachelor’s program, and I’m 23 weeks pregnant with my first child, due in July.

In 2016 I lived in Montenegro almost the whole year, worked in a small American company as the only back-end developer, and traveled to Shanghai for a month to study Chinese. And I had a girlfriend that lived in another country in my home in my stead.

Now I practically forgot the Chinese language and live in Valencia and work for another American company much bigger, but don't travel that much. And I am married now on that same girl, so not much had changed in a way, it's a bit rough now but I hope I'll adapt with time
