I'm having trouble with the following sentence:
Hace unos meses y para su "enorme sorpresa", tal y como reconoce él mismo, Berriff recuperó de su desván la caja...
I don't understand the 'tal y como' clause.
A few months ago for his 'enormous surprise', [something to do with rediscovering himself], Berriff recovered the box from is attic.

tal y como = as, or just as
reconocer can also mean to acknowledge or admit
tal y como reconoce él mismo = as he himself admits
Hace unos meses y para su "enorme sorpresa", tal y como reconoce él mismo, Berriff recuperó de su desván la caja...
A few months ago and to his "enormous surprise", as he himself admits, Berriff recovered the box from his attic...
