Moving to the Philippines

November 3rd 2011 — Canberra, Australia

This Saturday, I am moving to the Philippines!

For a long time, I’ve wanted to spend an extended time overseas, to learn a new place, culture and language, and tackle all the interesting challenges that go along with it. Now, it’s actually going to happen, thanks to my equally adventurous wife and flexible workplace.

Location of Bacolod within the Visayas

I’ll be living in Bacolod, Negros Occidental and continuing my work for Icelab as usual. I’m really looking forward to getting involved with the web/mobile development community over there, both in the Philippines and in SE Asia in general. So if you’re in the area, please say hi!

This also means that Icelab is much more easily available for hire in SE Asia. If you’re after some finely crafted web or mobile apps, get in touch.

It’s going to be a great adventure, and I can’t wait to get started. I’ll no doubt have plenty of interesting things to share, so be sure to follow me on Tumblr and Flickr, where I’ll be documenting my travel experiences.

Hi, I'm Tim Riley. I'm a web developer based in Canberra, Australia, where I work at a small design studio called Icelab. This is my blog, where I can share with you the things I learn as I go about building products for the web.
