Hello from Durham

Introductions
1

Hi all! I am an Argentine software dev who has recently moved to the North East. I am a member of Coprinf, IT & design cooperative based in Santa Fe, Argentina, our coop is a member of FACTTIC (Federation of Tech Worker Cooperatives).

In Coprinf, we have participated in different projects with other coops of the federation, we’ve joined forces with the coops where @nicolasdimarco and @Neto work as well, who have had the opportunity to visit the UK last year.

I am now present and settled in the UK and very much looking forward to participate in the community, to learn about coops in the UK, and hopefully to join forces with fellow tech workers :slight_smile:

I’m in County Durham, I’ve seen the closest coops to me are in Newcastle, hopefully one day when back to normality I can visit one of them (or travel a bit further too, I would love that!). I am currently getting accustomed to the accent (why aye!), and using this time to keep on learning and participating in projects in my home country.

So hello and stay safe! :wave:

Your post was much friendlier, slowing it down with emojis and word like “welcome”, like a luxury airliner compared with my fighter jet-like “we do call?”

Hi Noelia,

It’s great to know that you can get in touch with our friends at CoTech while you’re there.

Greetings from Argentina!

Hello! Albeit it’s a little late in the week now, I just wanted to check in again. I’m up for a call whenever is best. I can’t direct message as I’m new in the board, so I thought I’d just leave the reply here.
