      <description>&lt;![CDATA[&#39;Kapingamarangi&#39; is a blog written by me, Bram Souffreau. I work for the Belgian investigative news site &#39;Apache&#39;. I&#39;m doing the administration for them. I used to work as a journalist, and I miss it a lot. I hope one day I&#39;ll be able to practice journalism again.&#xA;&#xA;You can explore my career on LinkedIn.&#xA;&#xA;Kapingamarangi is my playground. I started blogging in 2001, but I took some (long) breaks of blogging to realize other projects. Apache, for instance. And the old posts unfortunately disappeared from the web. I think some are still stored on a hard drive somewhere...&#xA;&#xA;Kapingamarangi is a blog with stories and murmurs on topics I have an interest in. There&#39;s no pressure. Posts are published when they seem ready for the world.&#xA;&#xA;There is no professional team in the back.&#xA;&#xA;The blog is written in English - but sometimes a post in Dutch pops up. English, though, is is not my mother tongue. I was born in Aalst, Belgium. Dutch is my mother tongue, although my mum speaks French ;-) Since 2019, I live in Manila, the Philippines, a city I started to love.&#xA;&#xA;The url of this blog is kapingamarangi.xyz.&#xA;&#xA;strongCreative commons/strong&#xA;p xmlns:cc=&#34;http://creativecommons.org/ns#&#34; xmlns:dct=&#34;http://purl.org/dc/terms/&#34;a property=&#34;dct:title&#34; rel=&#34;cc:attributionURL&#34; href=&#34;https://kapingamarangi.xyz&#34;Kapingamarangi blog/a by a rel=&#34;cc:attributionURL dct:creator&#34; property=&#34;cc:attributionName&#34; href=&#34;https://www.linkedin.com/in/bramsouffreau&#34;Bram Souffreau/a is licensed under a href=&#34;http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/?ref=chooser-v1&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;license noopener noreferrer&#34; style=&#34;display:inline-block;&#34;Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 Internationalimg style=&#34;height:22px!important;margin-left:3px;vertical-align:text-bottom;&#34; src=&#34;https://mirrors.creativecommons.org/presskit/icons/cc.svg?ref=chooser-v1&#34;img style=&#34;height:22px!important;margin-left:3px;vertical-align:text-bottom;&#34; src=&#34;https://mirrors.creativecommons.org/presskit/icons/by.svg?ref=chooser-v1&#34;img style=&#34;height:22px!important;margin-left:3px;vertical-align:text-bottom;&#34; src=&#34;https://mirrors.creativecommons.org/presskit/icons/nc.svg?ref=chooser-v1&#34;/a/p&#xA;&#xA;This license requires that reusers give credit to the creator.
