How awesome is this Steemer? I could tell you that she's a 10 but why not read the introduction and biographical notes written by @wofje and then come to the same conclusion yourself!

This Steemer is Really Creating Waves! (as told by @wolfje)

People like @surfermarly are still too rare on our platform. This lady is a doer, she's someone who grabs reality by the head and says "sorry, that's not what I want it to be" and she changes it for the good. The moment I approached her, her response was, why me, what did I do to deserve a card. Especially when I told her that the previous people I did were @lukestokes, @jesta, @heimindanger & @luzcypher ... all pioneers of the platform. To me it was obvious, those guys are working towards the benefit of the platform @surfermarly shows you how you can grab your own life in your hands and make something out of it. She sees a wrong in the world and will do everything in her power to make it a right.

On the one hand it's much easier to create a card about a person like this as the material is more focused, on the other hand it's much tougher as you want to use every quote that you read in her posts. @surfermarly is an inspirator, a truly positive person who takes set-backs as a next step in the ladder of life and you can read this in every post she writes. There is so much dedication and passion in her material and as she herself confessed in one of her earliest posts "Steemit reanimated her writing passion".

As her name already gives away, this lady is a passionate surfer. She left a busy lifestyle in Germany several years back to be able to do what she likes doing most. The ocean has become her home and she is now using it to help children, or in her own words: "'Dreams of the Ocean' @dreamsoftheocean is steemit's first charity project dedicated to support kids in need through watersports activities." Here is the LINK to her impressive last post about this charity.

I hope you've been inspired by this lady as much as I have.
