Hello,
I registered just a few days ago, after I found this European site by accident.
Ive been frequenting the US forums like BladeForums, KnifeForums, USN, OSF, Jeff Randalls site etc for a long time and everywhere my name is Bagheera which is the Scouting name given to me when I started in a small Dutch Scouting group as one of the leaders about 8 years ago.
This was kind of by accident as both our kids wanted to join this Scouting group but there was a waiting list for joining as there was a shortage of leaders.
After many years I had to put the brake on Scouting, I could not be 2 days a week active at scouting and work for a living the remaining 5 days.
I was asked to join the Scouting board as a board member and have been doing that since + of course always be available to help out our Scouts.
From origin Im a Biologist finishing Nymegen University in 1983 , but at that time there was not much work for a Biologist specialized in Ecology and wanting to marry find work and start a family I switched and after an very intense 1.5 year training in Computer sciences I started as Systems Analyst.
Well now almost 20 years later Im a Senior Systems Engineer for an San Diego based software company.
I love being in nature, playing with fire, knives, axes and guns .
I already have found valuable information on the Forum and hopefully can contribute myself some in the future.
Best Scouting wishes from Holland,
Bagheera
