About me

Yes, I am a Flying Dutchman. Living in one of Spain's southern deserts with family, incl. 8 dogs and 1 cat, and our youngest of 4 sons. We love the freedom of fresh air, a natural nature and... silence.

My work

Investigative journalist, script- & science-writer, orientalist, data miner. The folklore of the transition process from Windows to Linux has my interest: a clash of sects. New chronology and putting the puzzle of history together is a contagious hobby, particularly while my wife is a 'traditional' archaeologist, not to be moved by claims that our Western history has been tampered with since 1600 CE. Yes, I play guitar and wrote a dozen or so books. Yet, I studied business management and social sciences. Formerly I worked as an educational publisher.

Why I choose the Opera browser
