About Me

My name is Jedd. Which means most introductions go like this…

Jedd, this is Mike. Mike, Jedd.”
“Good to meet you, Jeff…”
“No, it’s Jedd.”
“Did you say Jeb?”
No, Jedd, with a D like in Dallas.”
“Oh, Jeb from Dallas… cool. I’m a big Cowboy’s fan.”
“Fuck you.”
The important thing to know about me is that I don’t take any shit, from anyone - ever! Growing up with a name like Jedd, you learn to handle yourself.

My Interests

Gezelligheid (noun) or gezellig (adjective) is one of the most difficult words to translate in Dutch language. There is no literal equivalent or similar word in English. The German word Gemütlichkeit comes close to the Dutch word in meaning. The words "cosy" and "delightful" in English probably have the closest meaning, but gezellig means much more. Gezellig is very colloquial, and is most often used in these contexts: one is with family and/or friends, light is right, people are right, music is right, conversation is right, then the atmosphere is "gezellig". So, a fantastic combination of cosiness, enjoyment, relaxation, well laid-back at home or chilled-out in a bar, while being in good company, is "gezellig".

Music:

Music is everything.
