Friends, Music and Video... we're helping you stay connected.

So who is this guy, really?

I'm a 34 year old web developer from the Netherlands, currently living in London where I work for Yahoo! I specialize in design, web standards based front-end development and programming in PHP. I do all my work on Apple computers and yes, I'm zealous about it. I like a lot of things, especially music, photography, movies and clubbing. I'm often opinionated and very honest about what I think. This isn't always appreciated by everyone but to me it's the only way.

I guess one could call me some sort of cyber-vagabond. I've been doing web development work in the Netherlands, the Dominican Republic and Sweden and my next destination is going to be the United Kingdom. At the moment I travel around with my bag of gadgets, my new MacBook Pro and some clothes. I love traveling light, just taking on whatever life throws at me. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. I've lost a lot in 2006 but since January I definitely seem to be in a winning mood! I was lucky enough to get hired by Yahoo! and land in an amazingly cool web development team. Working there and living in the UK has been an absolute blast so far!

Notice: DON'T add me if you're promoting some gay ass band I don't wanna hear about. I add bands I like myself. This isn't MySpace. Thanks!
