Overlooking the Manila City skyline from the 16th floor of my rented Condo in Mandaluyong just east of central Manila, I reflected on the current state of my 4 week holiday in Manila. This was now the beginning of week 3 and events had taken an unexpected turn. My girlfriend had just left me, she decided not to stay with me for the full 4 weeks and insisted i book her a flight back to Iligan City, her home town in the south of the Philippines. So what now! Alone here and still 2 weeks left of the holiday.
So i had time on my hands, good that i brought with me my laptop. Ok i thought apart from getting out and about and exploring Manila, I have time now to spend researching and keeping up to date with whats going on in the world through the alternative media on the internet.
I found Steemit while browsing through my you tube subscriptions. This excited me as i could see the potential for this social media platform being very popular.
I've never blogged before, this is my first ever and yes it's short but it's a start.
I encourage all newbies that never blogged before to give Steemit a go
