Hello there! I'm Marc De Castro, a computer and communication technology graduate, currently working as a software tester. Growing up in Vienna, Austria, with Filipino roots, I effortlessly converse in English, German, and Filipino.

A self-proclaimed lover of the English language, I constantly strive to enhance my communication skills. I'm known for my easygoing nature and knack for entertaining others with my voice, drawing inspiration from music legends like Bruno Mars and Usher. R&B music has a special place in my heart, and I express my passion for music by performing in a band, writing songs, and occasionally taking the stage for gigs.

When not immersed in music, I indulge in cycling around Vienna and exploring the picturesque Austrian mountains through hiking. I also relish engaging in deep, meaningful conversations about life, as I find immense value in learning from others' experiences.

Capturing life's moments through photography and videography is another passion of mine. Though not a pro, I am fascinated by the art of cinematic storytelling and always eager to capture compelling shots. If you're in need of a photoshoot, count me in! Don't forget to include 'Busog ako' in your request when reaching out to me.

Looking forward to crossing paths with you, fellow reader! Excited to connect with all of you! :)"
