[color=lime]Profession:[/color] Digital nomad and brogrammer. A digital nomad is a programmer who makes a living by working alone on his laptop.

A brogrammer is basically a slang word that means someone who takes part in non-geeky pastimes who also happens to be a programmer. 

[color=lime]Bio/Personality:[/color] A man of few words but many stories. James Cobalt has always been of the quiet sort. Unbeknownst to all but a few though that quietness hid a wild and adventurous side. Growing up in Auckland, New Zealand, James always felt that he never truly belonged. Sure, people were nice enough to him but the lifestyle and mentality of a typical New Zealander was always hopelessly banal to him. Support the local rugby team and drink a few choice brews with the bros. It was all well and good for most people. Such a prospect though quickly grew stale for James. Many people considered him a pretentious douchebag and perhaps they were right but the life of a pretentious douchebag suited James just fine. To be able to both enjoy a a wide range of food and music whilst learning something new about the world appealed to him greatly. This love of the what is different and new fueled his wanderlust to an unquenchable level. 

Sol City was everything James wanted in a city. It had culture, class, sophistication, cool bars and clubs, many young people and a love of liberalism. It was perfect. And so with that in mind James decided to leave New Zealand and move somewhere more hip and happening. Being a creative and independent loner was a hindrance when it came to forging long lasting relationships with people but it did have its perks. It allowed James to forge a skill set that made it possible to work with others distantly over the internet with no supervision at all. Such a level of freedom came at a cost though. Uncertainty and a lot of extra work came with the territory of being a digital nomad but James wouldn't have it any other way. With his unique skill set and his independent loner type nature it didn't take long for James to uproot his life in Auckland and transplant himself seamlessly into the exciting and glamourous backdrop of Sol City.

Apartment hunting proved to be quite a lengthy process. Thankfully in the end, James was able to find a nice enough single room apartment for himself in the Western Shore area of Sol City. It was nowhere near as hip and as happening as he hoped but the area, as far as James could tell, was relatively safe. The rent there wasn't too stifling though he still had to budget like a miser. It was worth it though to live in the same city that the legendary programmer Markus Hughes first began his successful career. With the promise of an adventure over the horizon and many a nice young lass to meet, James Cobalt eagerly set off into the neon wilds of Sol City to realise his destiny.
