Welcome

This is my personal little footprint on the web. It is not a big footprint, not a massive one — and I try hard not to step on too many people’s toes.

My old web page was outdated in both look and content. This site is a work in progress — stay tuned for changes.

Motivation

#

Normally, web pages are developed because people want to tell a story — and the internet lets them tell it to many people without spending a lot of money.

So why do I have this web page? Mainly because I’m interested in the technology. It was hard for me to find a reason to set it up, or even maintain it. After days of thinking and wondering, I settled on the two things I’ve built up real knowledge of: travelling and computers.

So, who am I?
