That's me on my avatar, but the image got just a little fuzzy and annoying (typically me, I guess, LOL)... And that's not a cigarette, it's a toothpick.
I adopted my username when I walked over a square called Praça do Giraldo Sem Pavor in the ancient city of Evora, a UNESCO World Heritage City in Portugal. Giraldo Sem Pavor was one of those legendary historic figures from the 12th century. He conquered the city to the Moors in 1165. The way he did that earned him the surname Sem Pavor, which means Without Fear... And Giraldo means, as you all can guess, Geert. I'd like to think that I am a reincarnation... Geert Without Fear. Yeah, I wish...
