A place where I could share the fun, weird and sometimes bitter scenarios of my life, and also a way to experiment with art and story telling. + +After receiving a lot of inspiration, not just from XKCD but also from other comics, and a small nudge from one of the artist of said comics, I finally decided to grab a pen and start drawing. + +## Start with the content, do the rest later +I already learned my lesson with the blog that it's better to start with the actual content and build around it, otherwise you get bored with building the webpage before actually making anything to fill it with.
