Dear Steemians! It has begun! ;)
Russia's first meetup will take place this Saturday, 13th August in the heart of the Eurasian continent. Novosibirsk, the unofficial capital of Siberia is gathering all people who want to link their lives with Steemit social network.
"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." ― Lao Tzu
What are we going to do?
The first meeting will be devoted to getting acquainted and discussing plans for the development of the Steemit movement in the Siberian region. We will drink tea and enjoy the sweets ;) Everyone who join us we will give a flag with the Steemit symbol. I'm sure it will be awesome! Simply join us!
“You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.” ― William Faulkner
Why is it necessary?
Live chat is what we now need in order to support Steemit. I believe that truly this project will be evaluated only if it can form the infrastructure in the real world. And to do something outside the virtual space of the Internet, you need to meet and to chat live. So I want to start this here in Siberia!
“Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently.” ― Maya Angelou
How to join?
I created a group on the www.meetup.com website and I will be glad to everyone. We will meet in the shopping center Aura, on the 4th floor (where a lot of cafes). We have between 5-10 Steemit users who are ready to participate. And I will definitely publish our photo report ;)
Here's a list of the current Siberian Steemians that are coming: 
For participation you can send me e-mail - chishchin@gmail.com or contact me at Facebook. Or just write me using VK.
