In addition to my mainly Java/Javascript experience, i am keenly interested in Scala. I have completed the Functional Programming Principles in Scala, by Martin Odersky. Completed all Scala coding assignments and received the certificate. I also did the course in Principles of Reactive Programming in Scala, and completed the coding assignments (with the exception of the final exercise due to vacation). I'm currently experimenting with the latest Akka Http Streams APIs in a side project, interacting with APIs such as Soundcloud and Instagram (hopefully more). I took a year out for travel in 2011 before moving to London. As well as seeing new places, i did some reading and playing with technologies (mostly Scala, Playframework, Android)
