My name is David Csonka, and I have been living here in Denver, Colorado for about a year. Before moving out west, I lived in Florida, where I graduated from the Florida State University with a Master’s Degree in Information Science.
I worked as a web programmer for several years after graduating, but after moving across the country I decided to focus on writing and publishing on the web. I have several blogs, and write about a variety of topics, ranging from nutrition, health, and fitness, to photography, and of course growing food and self-reliance.
I’m an incredibly inquisitive person, and am constantly reading and learning about new subjects. It seemed only natural to use my love of writing to share with others the knowledge and experience that I collect, with hope that I can improve the world in some small way.
In my spare time, I love hiking and biking and enjoy taking photographs of nature and wildlife. Check out my home page to learn more about some of my other projects.
