Thanks for clicking to read my first post on Steemit!
My name is Rich and I live in England.
Like many I found Steemit through the world of crypotcurrencies. Particularly, from watching posts from @JerryBanfield and @DollarVigilante.
Infact it was @JerryBanfield that said something in a video that really stuck with me about not wasting time and making sure everything you do always has a reason. So initially one of the main ways I want to use Steemit is as a journal for places I have visited.
I want to be able to look back in years to come on the experiences that I have had and if that proves useful to anyone when visiting the same places then great!
My wife and I love seeing new places. Last year we set ourselves the challenge of visiting 12 capital cities in 12 months; we made it to Washington, Ottawa, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Berlin, Vienna, Bratislava, Nicosia, Tallin, Paris, Oslo and London. Here we are in are at Niagara Falls where we stopped on route from Quebec down to Washington.
Since this photo was taken my wife and I have had beautiful twin girls (now 5 months old). They are amazing and we thank our lucky stars every day they are ours!! We aren’t naive enough to think we can still do 12 capitals a year but the girls have just climbed their first volcano in Lanzarote….
My favourite place on the internet is TED (... until Steemit, of course :) ). I think being able to watch experts talk so passionately about their field is really inspirational!
I'll keep keeping an eye out on people posting their views on the world, technology (particularly around block chain), travelling and any other eye catching posts.
Thanks for reading and I’m looking forward to seeing Steemit grow even more!
