About

Howzit!  My name is Jaco (pronounced ya-ku). That’s me on the right.  I’m a South African currently living on the island of Borneo.

Somebody once told me, and meant it as an insult, that I’m a blogger, a traveler and an eco-warrior.  However, that’s actually a pretty good summary of me.

Until such time as scientists discover otherwise, I will assume that there is only 1 earth.  And on this 1 earth, at some point during the writing of this blog, there were 6.5 billion people.

I believe there’s an adventure in every single person on this planet.  I would love to experience them all.  Clearly, I’m way behind.

What’s this blog about?

A little bit of a whole lot of stuff.

It started out as a personal blog I guess, back in the day when I had nothing much going on except my emotional turmoil.  For me, some of my best stories are from that period.

As I got more into it though, I realised more people read blog posts which are actually about something.  This is when I started blogging about traveling, the environment, IT stuff and Ubuntu in particular.

All my posts are pretty much about these things -  I have to say, I’ve fallen behind on my people adventures.

How do I contact you?

You mean to offer me a mega-million dollar sponsorship deal for my wildly unpopular blog about nothing in particular?

It’s easy!

Just leave a message on any post, if it clears the spam filters I’ll get it soon enough.
