My career shift into tech has been an incredible journey of growth and discovery. From writing my first line of code to becoming a certified developer and technical trainer, I've worked from agile startups to established companies like Telia. But here's what really drives me: creating websites that don't just look beautiful and perform flawlessly - they also leave a lighter footprint on our planet.

My coding journey began with Python, where I discovered the joy of problem-solving through programming. As my passion for web development grew, I naturally gravitated toward React and Next.js, finding the component-based architecture intuitive and powerful. More recently, I've been exploring Svelte, and I'm genuinely excited about its elegant approach to building reactive interfaces with less complexity.

Beyond coding, I'm deeply committed to mentoring the next generation of developers. There's something magical about helping someone realize they can reinvent their professional life through code.

When I step away from the screen, I love exploring scenic routes by bicycle - whether outdoors discovering new paths or indoors following virtual routes across iconic bridges over the Atlantic Ocean at sunset, complete with rolling mist banks, or through real countryside. There's something about the rhythm of pedaling that sparks my best ideas.

What started as a personal challenge became a life-changing habit. I've completed this journey three times (2x in 2020 and 1x in 2022), and each round taught me something different about persistence, growth, and the power of showing up daily.

Beyond the obvious skill improvements, this challenge builds something invaluable: unshakeable consistency. It's the difference between developers who dream about projects and those who ship them.

The magic isn't just in the code you write - it's in the consistency that rewires your brain. Documenting my progress on Twitter opened doors I never expected, connecting me with developers worldwide, and leading to opportunities that shaped my career.

Ready for round #4 in 2025? I'm considering tackling something completely different. Because the best part of this journey isn't the destination - it's discovering your potential along the way.

Who knew that getting a smart trainer in June 2025 would turn my home into a portal to the world? From debugging React components to conquering virtual Swiss lakesides, my Tacx trainer has become the perfect complement to my coding routine.

The numbers tell an incredible story for a fresh newbie: 0 rides, 0 km of virtual adventures, and 0 meters of elevation conquered. But beyond the stats, it's about the rhythm - the same consistency that got me through three rounds of #100DaysOfCode now powers me through Thai canals and Norwegian coastal roads.

My longest adventure so far? 0 km through the - a ride that taught me the same lesson as tackling complex coding challenges: pace yourself, enjoy the journey, and trust that persistence pays off. Some of my best debugging breakthroughs have actually happened during long climbs through those virtual routes.

Every route is a new story: racing through Milano time trials, climbing Swiss mountains, exploring Belgian cobblestones that pro cyclists know by heart. It turns out that cycling and coding share the same fundamental truth - both require showing up consistently, especially when motivation is low.
