Hi everyone! I'm new to the Steemit Community. I learned about it when I got into the crypto rabbit hole last year. I finally joined this year because I think the best way for mass adoption is to actually use the products and become an advocate for them, so here I am!
I quit my job six months ago, traveled for a bit, and currently reside in Australia for a few short months. I have always been one to embrace change, but this move proved to be tougher than I thought. I left my job in sales, my friends, my family, my routine -- pretty much everything I had to take on this challenge. I was okay with leaving everything.
My partner has lived here for a year before I came and already had his life "established" while I "start over." What shocked me was how much I relied on people; on their emotional and social support to get me through the days. One can say that I resemble a hyena in a way that I need to be around people to thrive. This is another reason why I turned to Steemit will be good for me, I have respect for the community in that people are genuinely interested in one another. There's a certain altruistic-feel-good-type-of- feeling that the Steem community brings.
In my first post, I'll write about my travels from November. I visited Melbourne, Australia as my 30 day "trial period" to see if I would like it -- turns out, I did! Stay tuned :)
