Not really, I’m not that interesting I’m afraid, ha ha. I contribute to Openstreetmap every week, not sure if that counts as a hobby project online. And I play the piano, but offline only. :-)
My IRL obligations have been on the too-heavy side these last few years (because of work+studies), so I can’t dedicate a lot of time to hobbies, unfortunately.
D'accord, je vois. En tout cas, j'apprécie que vous suiviez notre projet et que vous partagiez vos opinions ici et là.
Oh dear, as an early "A2"-French speaker, I tried to roughly construct the sentence above on my own, then used Google-Translate to check-over my mistakes.
(HOORAY! XD)
Honestly, it gets embarrassing sometimes, as my parents both learned French at a fairly high level when they lived in Bruxelles for medical schooling purposes, for a brief pocket of time. Haha, and I'm still just a toddler upon all that, but truly, Belgian French tends to give me a warm feeling.

Ha ha, c’est normal, ça prend du temps de pratiquer une langue ! Si tu veux t’entrainer à écrire de temps en temps, n’hésite pas à aller sur le !forumlibre@jlai.lu. Il y a un fil de discussion libre chaque jour où l’on peut parler de ce qu’on veut, c’est détendu et je pense que personne ne t’en voudra si tu fais des fautes.
