About me

martin37 years old, living in Skee, near Strömstad in Sweden together with my girlfriend Judit, our 2 dogs Brummi and Abbe, and our cat Elvis (read more on the “Our animals”-page on the top menu).

I work in Norway (only 15 minutes drive from where we live) as an IT support manager/Webdesigner for an international company. Previously I had my own company where I did webdesign, photography and layout for a large number of local companies. I’ve also worked as a teacher, mostly teaching basic IT-skills, MS Office, web design and layout.

I have a background in computers that goes back to the late 70’s, when I first got my hand on an old Radio Shack TRS-80. Since then I’ve had many computers, and have worked with almost all platforms available (every from my old Commodore 20 to huge *nix and VAX-system)… I’m very patient, which is usually a good thing if you work with computers. Computers usually doesn’t work well if you get upset and bash them with a hammer :-)

When I’m not busy messing with computers you’ll usually find me busy with one (or many) of the following things; Our dogs, Photography (using a Pentax DSLR), Travel, Movies, Music, Watches or Sci-Fi (Star Trek and Babylon 5 in particular). I even built a little cinema where we can enjoy films in the comfort of our own house :-)

I practise Vipassana meditation, but I’m not as regular with it as I should be (I know, that’s my own choice), and in life in general I try to be a good person who doesn’t do any harm to anyone.
