Ok! I am here almost eight months now and today I am really happy and excited to show you what those months have brought me...
Ta daaaa!!
A dream came true yesterday, as I ordered my first camera with Steem (well, euros, but they came from Steem money)!
So, how it feels to know that with zeros and units you can actually buy real stuff like my new girl? Awesome!! I have wanted to get my hands on a piece like this for years, but never done so because I could not afford it or even if I could, I'd rather spend that 500-600 euros on something I needed more (save for a car, for example). But then Steemit came into my life (well, first it was the man who introduced me to it and pushed me to try - Thank you!) and then came the rewards and a great pump in Steem price, which felt like the best time to withdraw some coins and finally get the camera I wanted but never managed to get with "real" money.
For the ones who want to know more about what I bought
The camera is a DSLR Nikon D3400. It came with two lenses (18-55 and 55-200), a tripod and a bag and the whole kit costed 550 euros. It was a great deal, since I was quick to get it, I ordered it and the next day the price had risen another 100 euros. The only downside was that they had no available items at the shop where I ordered it and had to wait like more than 2 weeks to get it, but hey... it's finally here!
I cannot express my gratitude to the platform for making a difference in my life! I know, this is an extra "toy" I could live without. But if Steemit brought me this unnecessary thing, imagine what wonders it can work with people in developing countries where 1 Steem could buy a day's, if not a week's lunch!
Once again, Thank you Steemit and thanks to all of you who have helped me making a dream come true!
