About
Welcome to my personal weblog, I was born on the 9th of August 1981 and was named Michiel Robert Frederick Bijland. I’m currently a student at the Radboud University of Nijmegen and follow courses as both a Medical student and Informatics student.
Programming is one of my main hobbies and I am currently working on several opensource projects. Besides that, I started my own company “4 The Web” in September 2005 to help small business owners get on the internet and to support contracts for Joomla! websites.
A close second is sports. I like many things but I have divided them in winter and summer sports. During the summer I like all things that are winddriven: sailing, windsurfing and kiting. Outdoor rockclimbing I like to do as well but for these sports I have to travel a bit so I can’t practice them on a daily/weekly basis. Therefore I do spinning, tennis and indoor climbing at the gym. During the winter everything with snow is equally good: mono-skiing and skiing, I still have to try kite-skiing one day, should be a great combo. As you might have guessed, these sports are equally time consuming so during winter months tennis moves to squash; spinning and indoor climbing are still there.
Third is reading, I like fantasy and techno-Thrillers. Both genres are expanding ever more but I can give you some high lights: Michael Crighton(Jurasic Park), Robert Jordan, Weis and Hickman, Terry Goodkind and some more…
