About Me

Well, I find it hard to talk about myself too much. But, since that’s what this website is about, here is some more general information.

The Programming side

I write code.

No— I develop software. I just like the first phrase, because code sounds misterious. Software is something you use every day. Very boring. We shall combine both: programming is writing misterious code to develop boring software.

Yes, I do this every day. It’s my job, my hobby and my study. I chose programming because it requires creativity, knowledge, simple steps and structure. Programming is art, code is the tool.

I should say: one of the tools.

The Minecraft side

I occasionally play the block game.

That’s what I would say if I were a good liar. In practice, Minecraft requires either good friends, or a lot of time and dedication. We won’t talk about the friends, but most of my effort goes into other things nowadays. Let’s redefine ‘occasionally’ as: a few weeks once a year.

Hmmm, I bet this new domain would look great when that happens again…

The Art side

I draw things.

That’s what I would say if I were a good liar. A digital tablet does not come with a free skill package. I’ve drawn things. After each such thing, I am sure I will never be able to make something as good again. Hopefully sharing creations will make the process more fun.

100 sketches a day, huh?

The Japanese side

えーとー、こんにちは

That’s what I would say if I was in Japan in the year was 2030. To achieve that goal, listening to podcasts and going through a textbook will have to do for now. The Japanese language is so much fun, I love the usage of intonation and the sounds of the words. Don’t forget the great culture— especially for autistic people.

虹」は私の好きな言葉。

The Netherlands side

I live there.

Really, does a perfect country exist? There’s so much to be grateful for. You could almost start complaining about never having to complain.

The daily conversations with the frog from the nearby pond are also quite insightful.
