My Personal Story

I started this site without any HTML knowledge in 2006, when I was exchange student in Denmark.
This would never happend without Site Build It! Super Software. Thank you SBI!

"I now have a business that I can grow over the years. A business that is fun. I'll never do a 9 to 5. I'll always own my own life.

If you don't, what's the point?" Click here to read more...
