Bio

My nick name is Vasko and I am form Bulgaria. Since I was a kid I have spend a lot of time outdoor and I keep doing this until now. Professionally, I am Mathematician interested in science and engineering whose favorite job is to apply mathematical techniques for the understanding and exploration of natural phenomena. Currently, most of my efforts are focused on the building of a solar electric bike at FabLab BCN.
