My older brother told me I should sign up. He said, "Eyal, you gotta' check this out, this site is just the right outlet for you." He sees this because I write for a living. No, I ain't famous and no, you won't see my name on a book. But I've always dreamed of making a career out of writing. And with time and hard work I've climbed the ladder from copywriter to content manager to MARCOMM and Localization Manager. I manager 23 translators and have worked with the same team for 8 years. 1 translator per language, 23 languages, what a joy to work with colleagues who love the written word.
And so perhaps this site indeed is just the site to let me express whatever comes to mind. In English and in 23 languages. Because communication is key to bridging the world and I feel lucky to have a network comprised of 23 colleagues who love to do what we all do.
I grew up in L.A. but have been living in Israel for 8 years. I currently live in Haifa and after writing this sentence...and clicking "Post" I'll be on my way to work in Tel Aviv.... and document the trip. If you ask me why I don't have an answer except I'm new to Steemit and searching for my voice amongst so many voices with so many stories who are clear and concise and random and interesting and, well... if I can become one of those voices I would be thrilled.
