Not to forget that Nepal is known for the spiritual background and although the main religion is Hinduism, Buddha was born in Nepal.

Did you know that more than half of the Vultures in the Himalayas has declined in the last decade by over 99%? That from every 100 Vultures there is only 1 left. I didn’t know either. And do you know the reason? It is caused by a medicine called Diclofenac, very useful for humans but very deadly to Vultures. A lot of Animals get this medicine as well and if they die, that Diclofenac is eaten by Vultures and they die from it… No, I did not know either.

I have rented a house because after almost 8 years living from a suitcase half of the year, I was looking for a more ‘home’ feeling.

Migrate your Progress character based ABL / 4GL application to HTML5, modernization

But the world changed. Suddenly people did not want to go to the next field but skip some fields. They invented a mouse for it, you could jump to any field you want. And you could switch between programs, suddenly working on one machine was not good anymore, everybody had their own desktop computer with all problems which comes with it. But those programs were still the same.

Bye Daan.

In the years after that I did (also with help of others) a lot of very successful projects with Daan. When I left my first company to start Javra, it was again Daan who came to me with new work. And I think that we as Javra, combined with Daans own IT department, did great work in delivering state of the art software, projects within budget and so on.
