Many places. I took the time I was away from Steem or just crypto as a whole to get some experience in the world. At the time I was 17 years old and had not done very much besides sit on my computer and look at prices all day and worrying if my money was going up or down.
I decided to live a little. I went partying and just enjoying good times with friends. All this lead to me finding my girlfriend and that lead me on one of the craziest journey's I have had so far but I will leave all of that for a post I will be making shortly.
Sounds like you had fun. As long as it was worth it to you, you did good.
