Welcome,
It's your friend Bryan here, thanks for checking out my FIRST Steemit post. I'm pretty new here, several hours in fact, but who's counting?
No doubt this is the first of many to come too! :D
Im 24, a Mechanic by trade but have lots of hobbies and other loves within life too which I will be happy to share with you.
SO, a little about my background, I was born in South London, UK. Here is where I lived for about 12 years.
Moving to secondary school my parents decided to ditch the rat race and move us all to West Wales, this is where we would all start a calmer and more enjoyable life listening to the 'MOO' of a cow or 'BAH' of a sheep from the field next to use. But hey, it beat the sound of police cars and drunken yobs walking down the road at 3am.
I loved every minute of the outdoors, it opened so many doors to new adventures and interests. I started Surfing, camped out more, made stuff out of wood, smashed apart old washing machines in the drive way, (because I could). Suddenly I was allowed to run wild and use this imagination of mine, being creative and exploring. I even started riding a motocross bike to a friends house up the road, which I never would of been able to do back in London.
Although I did spend a lot of hours having to work out why it would not start ...
This I guess is what would later lead me on to want to be a 'fixer', a problem solver, bringing me on to want to learn the trade of a Mechanical Engineer.
I spent 2 fun and informative years doing my National Diploma (level 3) at a college just 15 miles away from my parents home.
My love for everything mechanical grew and I couldn't even drive yet but I was buying cars, fixing them up and selling them on. As college wasn't going to last forever , this meant I would then have to transfer those skills to the outside world.
This is where it got tricky!...
