My name is Alfonso Acosta, also known among those close to me as the resident nerd or the KamikaZEN.

Born right in the middle of the sixties, too young for Woodstock, too old for Nirvana and Grunge.

A late-life and almost accidental Buddhist who tries to follow the Dharma the best (or worst) I can.

When not hooked to the web I’m usually writing code only other four people in the world can read (three of them are webmasters, the other one drools a lot, lives in a padded cell and is not allowed near anything sharp).

I earn my living as a freelance web designer and developer in Mexico City. I usually joke with my friends from abroad telling them it’s a nice place to live, but you wouldn’t want to visit here.

I like to read a lot and let the mind wander to some pretty cool places, and a few dark ones as well.

Whenever I can I try to spend as much time as possible enjoying the company of my wife, three cats and a part-time dog (don’t ask about the dog, it’s a long story).

I spend my life among computers, Buddhism, technology, running, reading science fact and science fiction, admiring good design and mostly trying to learn more about anything that will tease or challenge my mind.
