This is my first attempt of my personal portfolio page, any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanced. https://codepen.io/gijosh/full/zKyKWx/

Good work!
You can avoid increasing font-size for the navigation items on hover…just change the font-color. 
Not bad at all! If you want to maintain your zoom effect on the nav items, in order to avoid that the whole navbar will be scaled, you could set smaller padding for “li a:hover” (something like half of the padding set for “li a”).
Great tip, I’ll change it. Thanks!
