Hi there πŸ‘‹πŸΌ

Nice to meet you. My name is Carlo!
I am originally from the Netherlands, but I currently live in Argentina (I love the tropical weather!). πŸ‡³πŸ‡±βœˆοΈπŸ‡¦πŸ‡·πŸŒ΄

During the week, I work on several projects for NGOs and companies in the United States as a UIX Designer, web developer, and IT Solutions consultant. I have created several intranets/forum communities with XenForo; I like the flexibility of XenForo and its endless possibilities! πŸ’ͺ🏼

Before I started freelancing, I worked at Apple in Ireland as an IS&T Designer, which was a fantastic time. However, due to the daily greyish weather and rainy climate, I never had that "home" feeling (and a little depressing time because I am the kind of person that needs sun!), which brought me a difficult choice; Keep working at Apple (which I truly loved), or stay in a country I don't really enjoy... so I chose to leave Ireland and move to Argentina as a freelancer! βœˆοΈπŸ‡¦πŸ‡·β˜€οΈ

I love traveling around, working while traveling in different places, taking photos, and enjoying walking around in cities! And as you might expect... I love coffee, even during the 39 degrees celsius weather right now. πŸ‘€πŸ”₯

Christmas in Argentina feels off; imagine walking around, seeing these Christmas trees and decorations, while you walk around in shorts and flip flops... not really that Christmas feeling, haha! πŸ˜…

I found the Forum Promotion website through XenForo, and I scrolled around a bit and liked the community, so I created an account! I also would like to volunteer for other forums, whether for moderation or anything else! I enjoy helping others, so I would like to volunteer! πŸ§‘πŸ½β€πŸ’»

Feel free to connect here or have a look at my LinkedIn!

Muchas Gracias!

Welcome @StarbucksCoffee I like your introduction πŸ™‚ Ireland is a very nice place in summer and it can be very dark at times then again no difference to Wales or parts of the UK you tend to get used to far more raining weathers in winter but nice in summer.

Thank you!
I was in Cork, that’s where the Apple European HQ is! I’ve been traveling around a bit and I agree that summer was a nice period to travel around but still… quite a lot of rainy days.

I’m used to rainy weather in the Netherlands but Cork was really… super rainy haha! But I like the nature sightseeings of Ireland, really beautiful!
