One year ago, 
Hive account@creutzy told me about this new blockchain based social media. Only problem...
I didn't know what a blockchain was. Or cryptocurrencies. Or just bitcoin at least. :P
Therefore, at the time, I couldn't understand why this social media is SO special. It took me a while to learn but I managed, kind of ;) He opened his account the 14th of May [on Zuckerberg's birthday muahaha!] and I did the very next day.
About 1600 followers later, with almost 61 rep and 4 accounts I think it's time for a recap!
This is my intro post... oh the memories!

So what happened this last year...?
- I learned about cryptocurrencies - I started trading and my knowledge boomed! I still don't know a lot, but it's a start!
- I went to
Hive account@steemfest and my life changed forever since I became more engaged and met people who would become my friends really fast! 
Hive account@immarojas and 
Hive account@teodora plus 
Hive account@sjennon and 
Hive account@things [who are visiting from Berlin this weekend yayyyy!] being just 4 of the closest ones! If I list all the cool people I met in Lisbon it'll be a never ending post haha! 
- I created
Hive account@steemsugars - A group of women [and some guys!] with the purpose of bringing more ladies into the platform! Currently we are 250+ members and it is going quite well! We have an official logo thanks to 
Hive account@oscarcc89, an official song thank to 
Hive account@soundwavesphoton and an amazing promo video thanks to 
Hive account@rocking-dave - THANK YOU GUYS! Check out the account for more and here's an invite to our discord if you'd like to join: https://discord.gg/D2V8nq9
- Hive account@steemsugars took me to London, for a SteemSugar meet up where -among other amazing people such as
Hive account@colossus39- I met ... 
Hive account@redrica! The Light in my Life hahaha !!!! The most energetic mom I've ever met, organized, cute, sweet, with an incredible deep voice and a sexy British accent !!! She is currently a Coordinator on our Discord plus she visited Copenhagen a while ago - here's the post: https://steemit.com/steemsugars/@meanmommy33/redrica-in-copenhagen-or-about-friendship 
- I was also organizing
Hive account@copensteem - the first Steemit meet up in Scandinavia and the reason Hive account@redrica was initially coming to CPH - with Hive account@creutzy, but due to lack of participation we postponed it for probably later in the summer. Follow the account to be updated and please share to people you might think they'll join! Many thanks to 
Hive account@katharsisdrill for the Logo! 
- I worked for about 6 months at
Hive account@ocd as a Curator for Italian Content! That was pretty amazing, but my limited time wasn't giving to the team everything that should so I had to quit. Many thanks to 
Hive account@acidyo though and to all the guys - we had so much fun!
- I was involved in other curation programs, art programs, and promoting steemit programs, that's how I evolved into the platform! The most important one being the
Hive account@sndbox incubator for which I try to create quality content! Thank you 
Hive account@hansikhouse and 
Hive account@voronoi for your support, constant help and trust! The new team is going to take over soon, but it sure was an amazing ride so far!
Unfortunately the guy who put me into this, my partner -in life and in crime haha!- Hive account@creutzy, is not that active anymore...
But soon enough hopefully this will change!
Another two real life friends are 
Hive account@sebi99p and 
Hive account@rbm :D
Still no news about Hive account@steemfest this year, but I hope we'll hear about it from 
Hive account@roelandp soon!
Steemit remains my happy place, even though I don't have as much time anymore to dedicate because of work...
So thank you everyone for reading and for your constant support! And as I always say, don't forget to smile!
Yours
MeanMommy
