Dear Steemians, let's meet!
Hello my little snowballs. I hope that you are in the same mood as I am while writing this. Which is awesome! First of all, if it wasn't for my brother @whack.science, I would've never found out for Steem or Steemit. So, thank you ma bro ;) Thank you for introducing this sweet community to me. Also, I want to thank people that started with this idea and made something worth everyone's time.
I had a lot of thoughts and a bit of fear while thinking about what to write in this introduction. I wanted it to be original but aren't all of our stories just like that? So I will write to you and will try to explain who am I and how my mind works. Also, I apologize for my English, that is not my primary language but I will do my best.
I was born on this little spot on earth near the Adriatic sea, „under“ the big chain of mountains. I really love to live near the sea because of the smell in the air and the possibility of living very healthy. Loving the air, nature, even the people are special. I must tell you that I really enjoy nature and all of its goods and opportunities. Today we cannot really appreciate nature as we should and I think it is because we don't even know what she gave to us and what more will she give.
I was studying the reasons for the depression and had a founded conclusion that it comes from constantly being indoors and constantly worrying about what smartphone or media tells us. But I also appreciate living in the city, the mad concrete beast, and I believe it has its magic but somehow I want them both, fifty-fifty.
For the last five years, I am studying on my 2 colleges and living in the capital city of my country. One college/direction is market communications design, which I already graduated and, digital marketing which is near the end. I can't wait to go back to my home town and enjoy good weather and lots of opportunities which some people cannot see even if its standing right in front of them. We, people, are blind, but its not entirely our fault. We just need to find the human inside (we need to find ourselves).
To find yourself, there are several possible ways to do it. One way is sport or practicing. I've practiced approx 10 sports in my life and I found sense in every one of them. Also, meeting different people while practicing really enriched my life. Another way is gatherings in nature with my friends, playing music with our instruments and having a barbeque. I will write about this even more in other posts.
We produce so much Serotonine when we are in nature with people we love and at the same time, the sun shines and we eat something we cooked. Also, spending time with animals and pets is really important. Especially with your kids or when you are a kid. I think that we must learn about other living beings and about our planet so that we could appreciate it in a way they deserve it.
I know that the majority of us are „lost“ in a sea of everything and nothing, but the only solution is to do something and to do it every day. I know it sounds cheap but if we are constantly on the same spot in our lives we tend to be bored and dissatisfied and then bad hormones start to take its spot. We must constantly try something that we don't do every day so that Serotonine would do its thing. I would like to speak about that but I have many things on my mind and I don't want to bore you with this intro. Maybe in some other post, I hope so very soon.
As I said, I am studying design and marketing, but one of my real passion is design. I love to be creative in every way possible. I love to make something out of almost nothing. When I started to design, I realized that I love playing with colors and shapes, and I really love to adjust it so that people can be pleased and entertained with almost every segment of my design.
Of course, before I even start to think about design I must make some research so that I know who am I dealing with. I have several projects and designs of what I am really proud of. When thinking about combinations made of colors, lines, objects, text or anything else, I also find myself very lost because they are limitless. But thankfully I just think about for who am I doing that and suddenly everything starts to make sense. I would like to show you some of my work and would really like your feedback because feedback is gold in my business. That is the main thing regarding my progress simply because I am doing it for others.
Also, I have to brag a bit :D my brother and I designed this logo for Steemit community BuddyUp less than 1 year ago.
I really, really, reaaaally like to cook and eat. My taste buds are something that also drives me regarding my creativity. I would like to go to cooking school but I must wait to finish my college first. Sometimes I dream about the food and the very next morning I start to cook that dish from my dream. I also had a creative dream regarding fashion but I must focus a little bit, so I left it just as a dream and a nice memory. Maybe someday... I will make some recipes, pictures or videos for you so you can understand a little bit more what am I talking about. When cooking, I really like to use fresh ingredients that are homemade. I would like to teach you some pretty neat tricks and I would also love to learn from you. And I am sure that I will.
One of my biggest love is music. I cannot ever explain the feeling that I find in a song or a band that makes me get chills. Sometimes I'm really angry at myself because I don't play any instrument. I would be really happy if I could play a guitar or piano for example. They are standard instruments but they can wake up some pretty interesting emotions in my body and my head. Since I don't play any instrument, I sing. I sing every day and it has already become my routine. It has become hard over these last few years because of my fear of singing in public. Those feelings, good or bad, are very strong in me regarding the music. If you ask me what genre do I listen, I really don't know the answer. I just listen to meaningful, heartful, strong in many ways music. I don't have anything on tape but something is „cooking“ with my friend and I can't wait for that to happen
In the sea of everything I do and I love, there are also photography and planting. I try to be a decent photographer but I don't have a camera or any equipment at all. Almost all of my pictures are taken by mobile phone and there are rare ones taken by someones professional camera. But still I must take those pictures, I just have the need to take those moments and perpetuate them. I don't really like effects and photoshoping the photos much but they do look quite better when you do some work with them. But I know that you can take a beautiful picture when the weather and nature are lined up, and all with non or a very small amount of effects. Something that I really like to photograph is nature and my plants. I love to grow chili peppers and flowers. I would also like to have a big balcony so I can plant some vegetables but I don't so I plant them inside my little apartment and for now, I have 37 plants of 7 types of chili peppers and a few flowers because I don't get much sun in my apartment during the day, only in the evening. Still, I got a decent amount of fruits so I make jams, I ground them and I put them in almost every food (love the taste, love it!), etc.
In conclusion, I need more hours in a day. I really do. I cannot really concentrate on something because so many things drives me or make me interested. And when I multitask I cannot get anything done more than 80% or so at once. So in the past few months I'm trying to single task so I have the ending of every job or task within few days. Managing time is very difficult for me. I would like to learn from you how you manage yours.
I must have forgotten to tell you something, don't know what, but it will be visible in my other posts. For now this is it. I hope that you know me a little bit better now and I hope that together we will make this community even better. I've turned 25 years old this month so let's start this year with nothing but good!
More or less, I am here to share my passion and my knowledge with you and also to learn from you as much as I can.

Welcome @ylania! I happen to know your brother and it seems you two are quite alike. Steemit is not like it used to be back in the day, but it could be fun if you engage with this insane (good and bad) community. It is way more interesting than facebook, I can tell you that much :)
Thank you, thank you! I love to hear that my brother and I are alike because I also feel like it. And I hope I will be at least as half as productive as he is here. I just have to learn so much. I very much believe that Steemit is more interesting than so many other communities. That is the reason why I'm here :) :)

Hello and thank you very much! I am so glad that I did well with my first post. I was a little bit worried because I didn't know the amount of text which I should write. Should it be short, no because I have much to say. Should it be long, no because I don't want to bore you. It was a bit of a dilemma. So I'm glad that you like it! I will start with Actifit very soon because I often go to the woods near my apartament and I also drive a bike almost every day. And after that I will explore a bit about Partiko. I promise :)
Great response as well 👍 yeah, Actifit might be perfect for you and feel free to try out Partiko anytime.
About your post, a post length is one aspect that accounts for its quality. There are communities like @curie which give out huge upvotes to great posts that meet a certain number of words, I think 1,000 words.
So, making a very detailed post and spicing it up with pictures in between like this one, is the best way to go. By doing so, it becomes interesting to the readers and one would not noticed it length until after reading through. This is actually what I experienced with this post :)
Do have a great Sunday and take care of yourself ❤

Thank you for sharing that information with me. While writing about something that I really like I can have great feedback and a reward so I can track my progress.
For this post, I had help from my brother and he said the same thing. He said that I can make a long post but I must try to arrange it so it is easy to read. Thank you for noticing that and I'm glad that I succeed at that.
Again, thank you so much for sharing this with me. I want you to have a pleasant day and hope to hear from you soon! <3
Anytime dear and sure you will hear from me again!

Posted using Partiko Android
Thank you very much Cassillas! For now, it has been awesome and I had a great welcome and many people who offered to help. And believe me, I am already thankful to my brother and I believe I will be even more because I know how he feels about Steemit and I know that he wouldn't spend so many hours at day here if it wasn't worth it. I hope I will do at least good here. I never had such activity in my life so it's new for me. I'm used to Facebook and negative emotions about social networks and online communities. Well, I'm sure this will be different.
Welcome @ylania.....i read your introduce and its very very great, i just wanted say to you warm Welcome, and i m not too good with English but i give all of me :) ...i read all of your post and for me most of interesting stuff what you love is that about Mountain and Nautre lifestyle, same like you and i want Mountain and Camping life, i really respect people who want go outside from City and rest little bit in Nautre....i wish you Wonderful day its great to have more people with wishes like yours:))
Thank you so much Gudeski for a warm welcome! I appreciate that you took time and read it and I'm glad that I've managed to write about at least those things that are most important to me. It's awesome that you like nature and natural lifestyle. I have strong feelings regarding the connection between nature and human mind and body and I will write about it even more in other posts. I hope that you will see it because I've revealed some pretty neat pieces of information about it.
Again, thank you for warm welcome and I hope to hear from you soon!
Congratulations @ylania!

Welcome to steemit!
Here is some information every newbie should know:
The value of an upvote is related to how much Steem Power the upvoter holds, as well as the current market price for the STEEM cryptocurrency coin.
Upvotes are not infinite, but they recharge. The more upvotes a person uses, the less it will be worth next time. On average, each person can give 10 full upvotes per day, because it's also how much upvotes recharge daily. People have to pick between many posts to decide what they're going to upvote, often choosing something they like but also taking profits into consideration. If someone doesn't upvote you, they could be waiting for their voting to recharge.
Your free account started with a borrowed 15 Steem Power. As you earn from your posts and comments, that will be taken away until you're standing on your own feet in the platform.
Remember to both give and take. If people only want to take away from the platform, the STEEM coin will eventually be worth nothing, because then everyone wants to sell while noone would be willing to buy.
If you run into posting limitations, that means you need more Steem Power. It's like a "bandwidth". The more you hold, the more you can do. It recharges, but slowly if you don't have much SP.
Steem Power can be bought, but it can also be delegated (borrowed/lent) using a steemit command. It can be undone by using a similar command too, so the delegator is in complete control.
You can check those bandwidth and voting metrics on the steemnow website.
I have attached a picture from the steemnow website below so you can see what it's all about. Note: I don't own the website.
Thank you so much for those informations. I've tried to gather the same thing on one piece of paper and this is just what I wanted. I've read it and things are starting to make sense even more. Sometimes I forget where things are or what are they called. Well, it takes practice to manage everything so that is just what I'm gonna do.
Again, thank you and I will check you out soon enough :) have a nice day!
Glad it helped. :)
Of course :)
Welcome @ylania 🙏🏼 - I’m newbie too but already meeting many wonderful kind Steemians and enjoying the journey. As you said, yes we do need more hours in a day 😁. At the same time a thought came to me and said ”you’ve got around 400000 hours on this planet (well if I live another 50years that is) and it’s you choice how you spend these hours”. I smiled 😊I will try my best to spend every hour with mindfulness and meditation filled with love, compassion and insight. Welcome and enjoy the journey 🙏🏼👍🏼

Hi and thank you very much! :)
I try to give my best in every situation but sometimes that's exhausting. I still don't know how to separate those situations which are or which are not worthy of my energy. Practice, practice, practice. And then some more practice hahaha
I'm sure that I'll enjoy this journey and I wish the same for you too! Have a nice day :)
Welcome to steemit @ylania :)

Hello Miniu and thank you! I already use Actifit and It has been fun. I realised that I learned few things about my town using it regarding history, architecture, styles of everykind etc. I wasn't really thinking about that but its happened and I'm happy.
Again, thank you for those infirmations and I hope we'll talk again :)

Hi and thank you! I already did one post on my mobile phone and It was weird. I'm just not used typing that long on something so small. I'll get used to it soon I hope. I'm checking 0ut Partiko for a few days now. And if I can use Actifit, I am sure I can use Partiko as well.
Thank you for those infirmation :)
Yes in first days is hard write long story in partiko but with time will all bee oky. :) And how I say: Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.

It is wonderful that you've said that because first of all, it is really good advice and second, my brother who brought me here also says that to me all the time.
Thank you for your lovely advice and hope to hear from you soon! Cheers :)

Streem on! Chears :)
WHAT A WONDERFUL AND COLORFUL INTRODUCTION! NICE TO MEET YOU @YLANIA . MY NAME IS FRANCESCA @PRETTYNICEVIDEO I HAVE TO GET OUT IN NATURE. I FEEL BEST THERE. IT'S LIKE A VEIL OF THIS INVISIBLE OPPRESSION IS LIFTED. I'M IN LOVE WITH THE MOUNTAINS HERE WHERE I LIVE. THE CRIMSON COLOR PALLET AS ALWAYS CAPTURED MY ATTENTION.
I WOULD LIVE OUT THERE IF I COULD. CONNECTING WITH NATURE THROUGH CANNABIS HAS OPENED A WORLD WHERE I CAN SMELL AND TASTE COLORS. I EAT ORGANIC FOODS MOST OF THE TIME. THE FOOD THEY MAKE IN THIS COUNTRY IS FAKE AND ITS AIMED TO GIVE PEOPLE A LIFETIME OF SERIOUS INTERACTIONS. WEIGHT GAIN BEING THE MOST . THEN LEADING PEOPLE TO DIABETES. I FEAR THE DAY THIS COUNTRY STOPS ALLOWING ORGANIC FOOD TO BE GROWN. LET'S HOPE NOT! IT WAS WONDERFUL READING YOUR INTRODUCTION
Hello pretty and thank you!
First of all, I want you to know that I apreciate comments like this. And I must agree with you as I also said in my introduction. Nature is something that I need and I want. My body and my soul are eager for it. Those mountains you've captured are so gentle but also harsh, and the colors are beautifull. Sometimes I admire nature for being the best artist in the world. If you are comfortable with it, can you tell me which mountains are those on picture you left in your comment.
About food. Do you cook anything with cannabis? I would like to get cannabis oil and start to season my food with it but I don't know the taste and possible application.
I must tell you that I believe people are not unhealthy because of food. They are unhealthy because even if they want to buy "good", "natural", "eco", they often get something that is oposite. I want to talk about this in one of my next posts and I hope you will read it.
Again, thank you so much! Can't wait to check you out on Steemit.
Streem on! Cheers :*
We are glad to have someone like you on steemit! The future of steemit is bright for you and your brother! Thanks @Whack.science

Thank you so much! I really apreciate those words. I was looking for something Like this for long time. And my brother was telling me how good and helpfull this community is but I was a little suspicious because I have very bad thoughts about Facebook and social networks like those. But sure enaugh, everything is telling me that this is not Like FB at all.
I hope you have a wonderful day! Cheers :)
