Blog Now Open

I’m the shoemaker without shoes.  Since I have a lot of Web sites and applications to do for my clients, I don’t even have time to do my own.

Opening my blog is the least I can do, despite its lack of an original look.  I’ve been writing on it, hoping to simply publish everything at one once I have a chance to finish making my own site.  However, thanks to search engines, the content of my blog was already made public unbeknownst to me, despite the lack of links to it from the front page.  In fact, not only other people are linking to entries in my blog already, but I’ve already received thank-you notes by e-mail for having saved their day.  Impressive for a blog that hasn’t seen the light of day!

A lot happened in my personal life, which made me late at replying to messages I’ve received.  I moved in Japan in last October to be with my girlfriend again and to finally experience the Japanese culture — something I’ve been hoping to do for so long since the day I’ve learned my first Japanese word.

Although I had to quit my stable full-time job back in Ottawa to pursue my dream of being where I live now, I am fortunately not without work.  I’ve been working on Drupal projects for clients in Tokyo and back in Canada.  In fact, last month has been the busiest since a long time, even more than last year, when I worked extra hard to save enough money to do the big leap over the largest ocean. My workload is more stable this month.

This is it for now.  I have a lot to write about, especially about Drupal and other projects of mine.  In the meantime, I invite you to read about my adventures in Japan at Edojin.

Goodbye from Saitama, Japan!
