Frederik Vanrenterghem was born and raised in Belgium, but except for a year back in 2013 where he lived in New Zealand, he has now settled in North Fremantle, Western Australia - the largest state of Australia.
G'day mate!
Welcome to my little corner of the world wide web!
I'm Frederik Vanrenterghem, living in Western Australia with my family since 2014. The fact I even maintain a website anymore probably gives away my age - yes, I was born before the 80's!
Life occassionally takes me places, mostly close to home but regularly a bit further away too. When I encounter something pretty or interesting, I might drop some photos of it on this site. (Family and friends might even find themselves on here - but they'll need to log in first.)
I host my own git server, containing code samples that might be useful as a reference to some. This site's source is stored in there as well.
I blog irregularly about free software, R stats (mostly data visualisation) and occassionaly even about economics or politics.
