Welcome

My name is Eric Funk and this is my private homepage containing some of my recent work and my latest travel photos.

Until March 2009 I was working as a Technical Director in the Brighton based digital marketing company Kerb Ltd kerb.co.uk. I went travelling in Southeast Asia and Nepal were I had a great time. In 2010 I will be working for SwissTXT in Biel.
