RE: Rediscovering my passion – connecting and growing with Hive

in Reflections8 months ago

I love this one!:

Meeting people in the hive is very interesting, each person is a different world.

What I like most is that there is always a person who is going to show you a different point of view, who is going to share their experience with you and that for me makes me dream of other places, other worlds and other cultures. Almost at night in my dreams, I savor its food and its places.

Sort:  

Oh yeah you are right about this, meeting people coming from a different country and learning their culture through their eyes is something incredible. Is one thing when you are looking on the tv, and completely another when is writing someone who lives this, and I can almost feel how they feel.I have already met a lot of people who come from Cuba and since it is my dream destination and since I have already read so many articles from a personal point of view, it only gives me more impetus to travel there soon. I believe you also find someone here living in a place you want to visit? :)) and thank u, Sony A6000 in his action ;))

Well, it's super interesting, I usually chat very animatedly with people in Japan, Spain, the UK, Ukraine and the Philippines. It's very interesting, because the talks go beyond hive, especially sharing on discord and sometimes on telegram, it's very entertaining (more so when competitive activities like games are shared haha). I dream of visiting New Zealand, I love the place, or the Netherlands. But to live I would like to do it in Amsterdam. I'm from Venezuela, although I know a good number of people in Cuba, also here on hive.

That Sony camera is very impressive, but the photo is even more so.

Thank you, but we sold Sony some time ago, lenses are just too expensive :/ Now you're talking to someone from Slovenia living in Austria ;) Oh yeah, Venezuela is also on my list, but man, those plane tickets are expensive. Maybe in the future, when Star Trek finally gives us warp technology, it'll be easier ;) I visited Amsterdam two years ago, and it was an amazing experience. So many different cultures in one town, and those streets and buildings... But I can tell you one thing, if I lived there, I'd gain a lot of weight! Every other shop is a candy store. I think the only place without candy shops was the red street! ;)

If I imagine that it is expensive, everything related to photography costs a lot of money (lights, tripods, filters, etc.). I do not recommend that you travel to Venezuela right now, because not only are the tickets expensive, but life in general is totally crazy.

I love Amsterdam, I would be able to mortgage an arm and a leg to go live there hahaha.

I wouldn't go just for the sweets, but for the cannabis, I would really enjoy that sweet, even more so being a local in the area hahaha.

Austria? That's practically my 2nd favorite place. You are the 2nd person I know from there, I love the whole story and especially the part about it being full of Vampires (if you are a vampire, come and bite me, I will be your slave! =) ).

We spent a ton of cash on equipment, and of course, we needed a drone. Obviously. Because, you know, very important ;) I almost crashed it a few times, but I think I’ve finally got the hang of it. I hope ;))

Let's be real, everyone visiting Amsterdam thinks about smoking without being judged. It was hilarious when we walked into a coffee shop. Instead of asking what we wanted to drink, the waiter asked what strain we wanted to smoke and started listing them off. I was like, "Dude, just give me my coffee and a menu, because I didn’t understand half of what you said!" Then they brought us pre-rolled joints. It was so funny sitting outside, drinking coffee, and smoking without looking over your shoulder for the police ;)) I was surprised, though. We tried speaking German with them because Dutch and German are pretty similar, but no one wanted to speak German. I guess they haven’t forgotten what happened in World War II ;/ Oh, and by the way, don't visit Austria acting like a vampire. Apparently, there are vampire hunters here, hunting them down across Europe, especially in Serbia and Romania ;))

The truth is I haven't had the opportunity to handle a drone, only in video games, so I suppose it must be quite easy to crash it, but it's nothing that after crashing about 60 drones you can't solve! ;)

Regarding the coffees, the truth is that it is very impressive to read your story, even more so, to be able to live the experience. According to me, Europeans in general are very hurt by the issue of the Second War and Germany. So much so that I tell you that on one occasion I made an analogy with someone telling him that he was a Nazi, and the Third World War almost broke out in the community. They take it very seriously, and to a certain point I understand it, but... you also have to turn the page with certain topics, let them go, right? I say to continue living and smiling in life and not stay stagnant.

How long did they stay in the cafe? I suppose several hours, until they could get up. I think I would have fallen asleep there on the couch, until the next day =D

OMG hahahaha sometimes I romanticize this topic too much hahahaha

I think we were sitting for two hours, and yes, we couldn't move. We might have sat longer, but it was freezing! ;)
Oh no no, in Austria, this topic is still very sensitive. Not so much with the young people, some of them have a seriously dark sense of humor about it, and I never know whether to laugh or just look away. But for the older generation, it’s still very problematic.
I’m a nurse in freaking Austria, taking care of people who fought for Germany in WWII. Yes, Nazis... People in their right mind don’t want to talk about it. Only one man speaks openly about it. He's 96, still in good health, and was a pilot. He always tells me how sad it is that Russia and Yugoslavia aren’t part of Germany. Every time I enter his room, he salutes me. At first, it was super creepy, but he's such a nice guy. It's hard to imagine he killed so many people in Hitler's name. Not too long ago, another resident passed away, and we found a notebook where he wrote down his victims. That was a huge shock. Seeing those names... wow... Oh, and one woman with dementia always asks us where her father is, and when you ask his name, she always says Hiler. How am I supposed to react to that? And now, all this stuff is coming back... young people supporting these kinds of beliefs... it's crazy.
Oh please, hide your teeth when entering Austria, but you can show them openly in Romania! ;)
