Introduction	I studied English Literature at University, then stumbled into "corporate life". This brought 20 years of working in international environments, with 4 years in Vienna and 8 in Amsterdam. Needing fresh energy, I left my job in 2009 to re-discover my passions for writing and travel. 100,000 km and 23 countries of world travel later, I am starting my own publishing company called DJB Pubs. My vision is to create a new brand of books named The Essence™ and my first book, titled "Amsterdam... The Essence" is now complete.

You've broken up with your old band and are about to release your first solo album. Please write the liner notes:

16 years of hard work, travel, fun and great friends. Regrettably, it's time for the next phase of life and work. Time to move on.
