+
+A while ago I joined [dn42], a virtual network on top of the Internet.
+It's an environment where you can study, explore, and deploy the very technologies at the core of Internet routing, like [<abbr title="Border Gateway Protocol">BGP</abbr>][BGP] and [<abbr title="Domain Name System">DNS</abbr>][DNS].
+
+Over at the [LORKEP looking glass][LG] ([dn42 link][lg.dn42]) you can look at who I'm directly connected to and how packets go from my network to another.
+Here is [all the ways][sample BGPmap] I can reach [burble], for example.
+
+All my nodes are listed on the [dn42 peerfinder], which you can use to find the peers closest to you.
+If you haven't yet done so, I recommend giving it a try.
+
+To set up peering, you can message `aasg` on hackint or any of my listed [contact details] in the dn42 registry.

+### General information
+
+- **ASN:** I operate AS4242420827.
+- **VPN:** I have the most experience with WireGuard tunnels.
+ I'm also open to trying out other tunnel types.
+- **BGP:** Unless stated otherwise, multiprotocol BGP is supported, but since my presence on dn42 is IPv6-only, that's the only protocol I negotiate.
