Being a Victorian explorer and purveyor of all things exotic and forbidden, I have decided to join the party. The youngsters can’t shut their mouths about it: steem this, steem that, steem…
Today, my account got approved. Reading through the steemit.com’s FAQ, I have found out that it is a custom to write an introduction on joining. Well then, let’s start it!
You are probably familiar with my previous life, but you may wonder what happened after my so-called death. It is a funny story…
One day, I was walking by the seaside in Trieste, when something shiny in the water caught my eye. (Yes, I’m that shallow. Don’t judge me!) As I was leaning over to see what it is, I’ve lost my feet and went under the water. The currents were strong and I was pulled towards the open sea.
I don’t remember what happened in the mean time, but when I regained my senses I’ve found myself surrounded by some strange folk offering me a bottle of fiery water. That was the beginning of my new life.
Having enough of fame and glory, I put on the cloak of anonymity. As my love and appreciation of the local liquor called rakija grew by the day, my command of the English language has suffered.
Today, I am not a Victorian dandy. Today, I'm a Balkan boy! Instead of wearing suits, I sport an Adidas tracksuit with gold chain around my neck. My head is clean shaven. Instead of hair, I keep a pair of knockoff sunglasses on it. The horses and the long walks are replaced by a swift ride in my VW Golf, Mk4 - 1.9 TDI. Diesel power for the win!
So, here I am looking forward to meeting interesting people, reading thought provoking blogs, and sharing my vast experience. After all, I am a stern looking old man.
