Small points:

I care for fashion -->
I like wearing fashionable clothes.

I love creating softwares -->
I love creating software programs.

Finally, "futsal" is English too, so you can just say
I love playing futsal.

Anyway, the meaning is perfect, of course!

I would also prefer using "futsal" in the text and perhaps explaining with indoor football in the remarks.

Hi Ian

"j'aime la mode"
This statement does not imply that the writer wears fashionable clothes, does it?
I mean, obviously if you like fashion you probably do it, but not compulsorily.
Couldn't the sentence just be "I love fashion"?

For futsal my doubt was : is that a term known worlwide?
Do all English speakers use it?
I thought "indoor footbal" won't be misunderstood.
But, of course, if you say it can be used, I will.
And as Maribel suggested, explain the term in the remarks.

Thanks guys.

futsal -> indoor football or soccer.
