Great! I've been trying to get my head around Scrapy, and I have little Python experience. This seems to fit in a lot better with my skillset for the project I'm working on.
Probably freelancing via something like Upwork. I work an additional 15 hours a week on top of my current job, and the pay seems quite competitive (I mainly take Laravel jobs). The service seems way less 'Wild West' than Freelancer does (which I've had bad experiences with in the past).
