Hello Everyone, I recently got introduced to hive by a friend, she told me alot of interesting facts about this blockhain and I'm super excited about starting my hive journey, I am open to knowing and meeting alot of lovely people here, so why don't we connect, I'll like to introduce myself.
I am Anita Peters from Nigeria, a 25 years old Christian girl who is also phlegmatic, Born on June 15th, 1997 ( I would be turning 25 in a month though). My Father is a Nigerian while my mother is Ghanaian, their love story is a beautiful one and I will love to talk about it later on. I am the third child, I have a very supportive big sister and a not so obedient big brother and I love them both so much, they mean the world to me.
I am from Abi local government area in Cross River a state in Nigeria, I'm sad about it too but I'm not very fluent in my native dialect, but let it be recorded that I tried, I actually did, I speak english more fluently because it's the primary Means of Communication in my country.
I love God and I believe that He sent His Son Jesus Christ to die for my sins and I'll live my life in gratitude for the love God has shown me. I attend St. Charles Catholic Church and that is one of my best place to be, the presence of my God because there is so much peace, joy and gladness. I'm honestly so happy that I found God at such an early stage in my life and I encourage everyone, if you haven't found Him yet, He is still waiting for you and I pray that you will notice Him too.
The beginning of my life is encapsulated in the walls of Calabar the capital city of Cross River State, a state in Southern Nigeria bordering Cameroon to the east.
Calabar comes to mind when Nigerian tourism is addressed. Calabar is one of Nigeria's most important tourist destinations, with a rich history, gorgeous scenery, and vibrant culture. It is also known as Old Calabar and is one of West Africa's most popular tourist destinations. A traveler's heart is drawn to the city's pristine atmosphere, good security, natural and historic attractions.
Calabar has something for everyone, whether you're planning a honeymoon, a weekend break, or a solo tour. There are alot of amazing facts about Calabar that I may not be able to spell out, The name of the state is derived from a river called Oyono which passes through the state.
English and French are the two major foreign languages of the state admist tons of native dialect. The state has 18 local government areas that speak completely different languages.
I was raised in this beautiful city that flows with milk and honey, the slogan of the state is "The nation's Paradise". It is a very peaceful place with lots of interesting and fun sites,
Calabar is a city that opens it's arm to everyone just the way they are, very hospitable and gives people the opportunity to be themselves and be authentic.
I'm not completely impressed with the fact that I completed my nursery, primary and secondary education in calabar, as a child I always wanted to try new things, new places, I wasn't satisfied with routine and being in the same location for such a long time so what my parents did was make sure I travelled every holiday (mostly because I didn't let them rest 😂).
I am a graduate of University of Calabar (UNICAL) in Nigeria still in Cross River State, where I obtained my first degree in accounting in 2019 and I'm currently a chartered accountant and I really love my job, I grew up seeing my dad do different kinds of businesses and on very few holidays I followed him around to work and I learnt how he handles business with his clients, if you ask me I would say that's the major reason I grew up better in business and sometimes, my friends come to get business advice from me and I do it for free because it's something I love.
I have a thing for counseling too, I don't know but there's something in me that loves people, I love to see them grow, become better and live positive lives, I may not go professional in this but I'm open to giving advice concerning life in general.
I am someone that loves to work with my hands literally, so I picked up some skills that interest me. I learnt how to sew, not so professional yet but I'm still looking to improve and go commercial with it. I also learnt how to bake because I love cake I figured I should as well know how to make it maybe not for business just yet but for Personal consumption and keep my fingers crossed that I don't get fat.
For me I find Reading books that improve my mental capacity delightful, I love making friends and hanging out, it really helps to relieve anxiety.
My philosophy in life is make sure you're doing anything you can with all your strength, in short, "Go hard or go home". What the point of doing something when you're not doing it to the utmost? Honestly there is no point.
I adore animals, and my favorite animal are dogs. They have a subtle way of teaching humans about true love and loyalty, and I believe we can learn a lot from their habits.
I enjoy visiting new locations because I believe it is an effective approach to develop intelligence, learn new things, languages, and I am a fan of nature and wonderful food. I love ice cream; I'm not sure why, but I don't get along well with vegetables, though I do attempt to eat healthy on occasion. I can sew clothes since I enjoy fashion and it is one of my creative outlets.
I'm very excited to share my thoughts, beliefs, fears and experiences, places I visit, and everything that inspires me with the world through this platform, and I hope I make the most of it by promoting Hive and encouraging others to join and be a part of such an amazing blockchain.
Finally, I'd like to express my gratitude to my great friend who introduced me to this platform. Thank you for always keeping me informed and sharing your knowledge with me, as well as for your patience and encouragement in getting me started. I hope we can make the most out of life together.
For now, that's all I have to say. Thank you very much for reading my introductory post and I hope to see you again soon.
