 About

Who am I?

Welcome! I'm Tim (He/Him), a 48-year-old creator from 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, with a passion for gaming streams and honest drink reviews.
Tim, the content creator
I've always had a strong passion for visual arts, photography, and video creation.

My journey began in my late teens and early twenties through MMORPGs like EverQuest, Asheron's Call 2, and World of Warcraft. I was drawn to the creativity and storytelling in these games and began making short machinima videos using in-game footage. I shared them on my guild's forum, where they were well-received.

Around the same time, I led a small demoscene group called Nosferatu under the alias Allodox, contributing as a programmer, musician, and texture artist. While not an expert in any one area, I was involved across the board, and it was a major creative outlet despite not being directly related to video production.

Even while working as a system administrator, I continued creating videos, sharing tech-related content on my website, and making short films from weekend explorations of abandoned buildings with friends.

In mid-2015, I became a partnered streamer on Twitch  under the name AjiraKimberly, streaming The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim daily and engaging a medium-sized audience. I stepped away from live streaming in late 2020 to focus on real-world video production for YouTube.

I planned to launch my YouTube channel in early 2021, but COVID lockdowns, a broken vertebra, and other setbacks delayed things. I finally released two reaction videos in 2022, but they didn't reflect the kind of content I wanted to make. I removed them and rebooted the channel in March 2023 with energy drink review videos as an experimental start to help me learn the ropes. Initially, I filmed in a rented space, but later moved production to my living room to cut costs. In December 2023, I was sidelined by pneumonia and a broken foot, pausing work for nearly three months. By late February 2024, I returned with renewed focus and converted a bedroom into a small home studio, where I've been creating ever since.

My 2020 retirement from live streaming didn’t quite stick. In mid-2025, after watching a trailer for the Kickstarter  for a new game called Everwind, I felt inspired to return. On October 10th, 2025, I came back to Twitch under my own name and started fresh, even resetting my channel to rebuild from the ground up. After giving it an honest try, I realized that the game wasn’t what I had expected, and it had a noticeable effect on my viewership, which in turn greatly affected my mood and motivation. On April 23, 2026, I decided to step away for a while to refocus on YouTube and spend more time with Stitch, returning again in September 2026 with different games and renewed motivation.
Stitch, the cat

Stitch, in November of 2021.
Stitch, a 19-year-old female European Shorthair cat, was the love of my life.

Her previous owners named her after the Disney character, but gave her up when they moved house in 2017. I was told their dog, Lilo, was put to sleep due to old age, the guinea pigs were rehomed to a petting zoo, and Stitch was adopted by the grandparents so the children could still visit her.

Unfortunately, Stitch didn't get along with the grandparents' other cat, so they began looking for a new home. As it happened, the grandfather was a friend and former coworker of my stepfather, and Stitch came up in conversation during a visit. I had previously mentioned to my parents that I was thinking of adopting a kitten, and my mother asked if I'd consider an older cat instead. I agreed to meet her and we clicked instantly.

A few days later, on November 11, 2017, I adopted her. We spent nearly nine wonderful years inseparable until she passed away on August 21, 2026. She was a constant, beloved presence on my Twitch streams over the years and will be deeply missed.

About Tim
The name Fabi simply means Fabulous, Bitch – because that’s exactly what I’ll be once this project is finally done. 😏

The project began with a chance encounter some time ago. An unexpected meeting with someone who became a catalyst for change. Their effortless, unapologetic charisma and flair inspired me to take a closer look at my own life, push myself to get it together, and question parts of myself I had always assumed were set in stone.

At its heart, Fabi is about dusting myself off and getting back into the game, so to speak. It’s about investing in myself from every angle: losing weight, refining my personal style, taking better care of my mental health, getting physically stronger, and improving my overall well-being. Together, these things are about rebuilding my confidence, feeling good in my own skin, and becoming the kind of person I know I can be.

I’ll be sharing regular updates on my Instagram page. The ongoing transformation will also be visible through my Twitch livestreams, of course. Fabi is a project about personal evolution, and I’m looking forward to sharing the journey along the way.
About the YouTube review videos...
With just 1.75 by 2.30 meters to work with, my studio setup requires a clever use of space and a compact gear layout. Every piece of equipment has been carefully chosen to save space without sacrificing quality. Aside from the talking-head camera, photo box, key light, and background lights, all equipment is mounted directly to the table using articulating arms and clamp-on stands.

That's right!

I'm a reviewer, not a collector. The cans and packets you see in the background are actually my to-do list for upcoming energy and gamer drink reviews. The three in the small cube shelf on the right wall are (usually) the next reviews in line, while the larger cupboard on the left holds the rest of my stock.

In general, I review canned and bottled drinks in order of their expiration dates, though a newly released drink might occasionally jump the queue. Gamer drinks are a bit more random, since sample packets from the same brand often share similar expiration dates.

You can check out the full stock and upcoming reviews right here .
Since 2025, I've been giving each energy or gamer drink a tier rating at the end of my reviews, ranging from S (the best) to F (the worst). Flavor is the main factor I focus on, though I also consider nutrition, specifically sugar content, to some degree. Price and packaging design aren't part of the ranking.

Here's what each tier means:
  • S – Superb: Outstanding in every way; truly exceptional.
  • A – Amazing: Excellent performance; minor flaws only.
  • B – Balanced: Solid across the board; good but unremarkable.
  • C – Could Be Better: Falls short in key areas; not terrible.
  • D – Disappointing: Below expectations; rarely impressive.
  • E – Extremely Poor: Lacking in most areas; significant issues.
  • F – Failure: Fundamentally flawed; avoid at all costs.
Reviews from before 2025 do not include a tier rating.
I'd be happy to review your product! Just to request my shipping address; But before you do, please keep the following in mind:

For food and drink reviews:
  • I'm a type 2 diabetic , and that's my top priority. If your product contains more than 5 grams of sugar per 100 ml, I won't be able to do a taste test. However, I'm always open to discovering new products and would be happy to discuss alternative collaboration opportunities.
About review videos in general:
  • At heart, I'm a content creator, not a salesperson. My aim is to produce honest, entertaining, and informative content, not to push sales through scripted or guided reviews. While you're welcome to suggest key features you'd like mentioned, I retain full creative control over how the review is presented. My thoughts, humor, and even the occasional mistake are entirely my own. I don't submit video previews for approval or revision.
  • I do not moderate or remove critical comments, as long as they're factually accurate and respectfully expressed.
  • As required by law and YouTube's guidelines, I will clearly disclose that a video includes paid promotion if I've received free samples or other support from the manufacturer, even if no money changes hands. I'll also mark the My video contains paid promotion like a product placement, sponsorship, or endorsement checkbox on YouTube accordingly.
  • While I can't guarantee viewership numbers, I can promise high production quality, honest coverage, and my best effort to reach the right audience.
  • You're most welcome to share my videos by linking to or embedding the original upload on YouTube. Re-uploading all or part of a video without my explicit permission is not allowed. However, I'd be willing to record videos specifically for that need.
A few notes about shipping:
  • For canned or bottled drink samples, please include at least two containers per flavor in case one is damaged in transit.
  • I won't accept packages that require payment on delivery, including shipping fees, import duties, or COD charges, unless previously agreed upon.
