[edit] Intro
My name is Agustin. I am originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Today I live in Montréal, Québec, Canada. I am a college (Cégep) student and I am doing the IBO Diploma Economics-profile.
[edit] Wikipedia User
I visit Wikipedia periodically, when I need information or when I just have some time to spare for finding interesting articles. My interests are mostly languages, geography and politics. But I also regularly look for articles on computers, music, history and other subjects. I am fluent in Spanish, English and French and I have an advanced level of German, so I regularly visit Wikipedia in those languages.
My contributions to Wikipedia are mostly related to popular culture, especially regarding the local cultures of Argentina, since english-language content concerning this matter is not abundant. However, I also like adding details to already-existing articles related to Canadadian and Québécois culture. The aspect that I adress most often is language, like for instance local argentine vocabulary, pronunciation, etc.
[edit] Hobbies
- Music: I like listening to Joe Satriani. I also enjoy playing the guitar (even if I am not good at it).
- Language: I like learning new languages. I am planning to resume studying Chinese mandarin. I wish that in my life I will have enough free time to learn as many languages as my brain can assimilate. I also have a weird passion for dictionaries of any sort and language.
[edit] Favourite quote
- Wer fremde Sprachen nicht kennt, weiß nichts von seiner eigenen (Wilhelm von Humboldt)
The one who does not know any foreign language, knows nothing about his own.
