There are actually quite some similarities between the Portuguese and the Dutch, at least the area in The Netherlands where I come from (the South). We like to enjoy life with our family and friends having long and late (for Dutch standards) dinners just like the Portuguese in my experience. The difference is that Dutch people tend to be straight forward and to the point (some might say blunt) and the Portuguese, at least most of the Portuguese people I know, are the complete opposite of that.

This depends on the technology really. If it is IT related my first instinct is to understand what is wrong and fix it. If it is non-IT technology, I still like to understand what is wrong, but fixing it is not my skill normally, so this is something I like to avoid as much as possible.

I like to think I have a talent for motivating people, so how do I explain that through an object? What motivates me to do more is my activity tracker even on days I don’t feel like doing a lot of exercises my activity tracker encourages me to do a bit extra.

iOS for sure. I have actually never used Android, but what I like about iOS is that the integration between the hardware, the software, other Apple devices (Watch and Mac) and the cloud works very well and though it might be limited in customisation for me communication technology is a basic need that should work like water from the tap.

It’s not really specific to technology, but a person I admire is Simon Sinek. He is well known for his TED talks and his unique way of explaining things everybody encounters on a daily basis. Listening to his explanation often helps me understand why things are the way they are. This helps when working with people from different backgrounds.
