Hi, my name is Pavel Popov, I am from Bulgaria and I came to Berlin in August to pursue my dream of working as a web developer. My previous job was a Navigational officer on board 200 meter car carrier vessels. I've been around the world three times, sailed more than 150 000 miles and been to over 50 ports all over the world. Although challenging and at times fun, I was always thinking I could do something more, something different.
I got the bug for learning web development when Covid struck, but I didn't have the chance to make the jump to switching careers. Now, after 10 weeks spent at Ironhack Berlin, where I was plunged into the world of web development at blistering speeds I'm open for work opportunities.
