ABOUT ME
Profession: freelance photojournalist / writer, cum parttime online gambling rat. I have some published works with a publisher in Indonesia. Updated works: http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/1503176.Gama_Harjono
I can play Holdem (poker), won a tournament at work, shattering hopes and dreams of 60 workmates.Lived in Italy 2006-07, then Indonesia Jakarta, followed by Australia Sydney, Rome Italy, Istanbul, Zagreb, Buenos Aires and now, Auckland. I am a freelance photojournalist, I work on my projects and sell them to the media. Photo walks in Rome/Lazio/Italy are of interest, if you find that interesting then we gotta catch up.Despite my IT degree, I never worked in the industry and do not plan to pursue it. Technology helps you connect and yet at the same time isolate you, I guess that's my finding. So more people contact.I undertook a postgraduate study at the University of Sydney, not in IT though.
My works are regularly published on National Geographic Traveler Indonesia:
