I am Ramon,crisis wranglerdigital adventurerUNESCO Digital Heritagecat butler

Welcome to my personal website! Currently living in Phnom Penh with my cat Fifty Shady (yes, really), I spend my days mixing work, writing, world-changing ideas, and noodle soup. Over the past two decades, I’ve launched digital platforms, led humanitarian innovations, guided folks up Kilimanjaro, and even started an indie cinema chain in Cambodia. I don’t do “ordinary” very well.

You might have read my words in The Guardian, Volkskrant, Libération, Süddeutsche Zeitung, El País or National Geographic, or caught a whisper of my early claim to fame: founding the world’s first digital hospitality network — back when the internet still made funny noises. These days, I’m all about building smart solutions for messy problems, especially where tech meets humanity.

I flip between Dutch and English like it’s nothing, and I work across writing, translating, editing, consulting, and dreaming up what’s next. Want the full story? Head over to the bio. Or just drop me a message — I’m friendly. No, really.
