Hello Hive - My introduction post

image.png

Hello (Crypto)World,

and thank you for having me in here. I've stumbled upon Hive on X, formerly known as twitter, where there is and has been a lot of activity under the #web3 tag. I found it a little sceptical at the start, due to the many accounts that are using it, as on X the bot activity is very high nowadays.

After reading a little about the ecosystem, I find it interesting and decided to sign up for an account, which I did on the 1st of November and managed today to take some time to introduce myself.

And now to the introduction, I'm a male (no need for pronouns), started my 40's this year and have a small and lovely family, with my wife (this was Notre Dame before the fire)...

...and a son that loves the sea. Actually, we all love the sea and every time we got the chance we go to it.

We love travel, therefore the avatar name, and besides travel I'm interested into a lot of things, one being crypto. We are living in Germany, which is very conservative in terms of crypto, so I'm glad that I can discuss with you in here. In Germany, we live in the South, which gives us a lot of opportunities of travel, especially to Austria, Czech Republic and one of my favourite countries, Italy. The image below is from the United Arab Emirates, where we did a trip a couple of years ago.

I did not share my face, and probably will never do it, as I love privacy. We are very discrete in terms of our life, but somehow, I like the idea to ramble in here. It is like writing a book, that is online and keep my life as it is. With crypto, I started in 2014, with BTC and added LTC and ETH after. Had survived the swings and managed to take some profit in 2019, where I invested into different asset classes, as safety.

Now, I'm consolidating the portfolio, and will try to raise to a sum, where my son can leave a free life and how he wants to. Not as a spoiled brat, but as a human being that is free, without worrying about financial reasons.

Another point of interest, would be sports. I played sports since I was little, and now I'm doing mostly fitness, hitting the gym a couple of times in the week and some combat sparring, if time allows.

One expensive hobby that I have, is old cars. I love them, I love the growling noise of petrol cars, even if I drive an Audi E-Tron for work. The car below was a failed buy, as we could not hit an agreement with the owner. My dream car would be a BMW E9, black with cooper gold BBS-rims.

Thank you again and let's chat.

Obrigado! Thank you for the welcome. I'm still learning and reading mostly, without too much action for now. Thanks to @pravesh0, I can reply, as this resource credit issue has been a pain.

I love your skate GIFs

Hugs from India!

Thanks friend, I use a tool called ScreenToGif, download it. You will enjoy playing. You've been doing a great job at hive, let's follow each other and stay connected. Hugs from Brazil

I will download the tool, I use an online tool to make Gifs but I suspect the downloaded ones are much faster than the online ones. Thanks and Cheers!

@pravesh0 It's very quick and practical, to put gifs in posts I use a gif upload site called GIPHY. Then I copy the link from the image address and add it to the same post.

And you are doing a great job on Hive too! Followed

Thanks brother, I'm glad I can say the same. It's so cool to make new good friends. I'm already following you, let's support each other in creating content!

Our Hive Power Delegations to the October PUM Winners

Welcome to the Hive community @travelandcrypto!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Seven suggestions to consider:

  1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
  2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner,
  3. The master password and the owner key are only used to reset compromised passwords,
  4. DO NOT lose your password or keys; copy and store offline,
  5. Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
  6. An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
  7. DO NOT OPEN any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @brittandjosie and @jamerussell from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hiveans available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!

Thank you @jamerussell, already joined the discord and see that you do a great welcoming process. Hope to help you back some day.

Hello! Welcome to Hive, @travelandcrypto. I found you thanks to @heyhaveyamet 's introduction post.
You've come to a wonderful place where you can develop any interest you can think of. The limit is up to you!
The learning curve is steep at first, but ask any questions you have, read and observe.
Here are some resources to help you get started:
Link to The Terminal Discord server, highly recommended for learning anything about Hive and @heyhaveyamet 's home.
Link to Ecency's Discord server, my favourite frontend and where you can find me most of the time.
Link to the Ecency resource library, where I'm adding practical tutorials in Spanish and some are in English, too.
Little by little you will find the places where you feel most comfortable, get in touch with other hivers and success will come.
Greetings from Spain. 🤗

Thank you @palomap3, or muchas gracias, as I love Spain, the people, the food and the good weather. I've already joined the terminal server and need to check and learn more. The links are really helpful.

Take your time to put your feet in the pool, hehe. Feel free to ask what you need, you can mention me and I will be there as soon as possible. 🤗
Pd- Thanks for your kind words about Spain! Gracias. 😁

I love Spain, even dated a Spanish girl in my youth. She was fuego! I like the atmosphere in Spain, a lot!

🤣 Yes, we have a reputation for being passionate, hehe. What places do you know?

Hey m8,
Welcome to hive.

You seem a real person, welcome on board.
I’m real too, ha ha, as real as the Butt can be.
I live in Guatemala with my 10 year old son, 12 year old daughter and my wife.
So if you and the family find yourself out traveling the world in Central America…. Hit me up 😎
Hive is a long game. I spent my first year here barely noticed, but I figured the few pennies coming in were more than Facebook or YouTube would ever give me.
I treated my blog/vlog more like an online journal and so wasn’t som concerned with earnings.
Being real, persistence and interaction is the key to playing the hive steady and slow game!
I wish you luck on your hive journey.
Feel free to pop in and say hi on my profile whenever!

Nice! Thank you for the welcome. I've got stuck as I used my resource credits fast, and only today got some back. As I've read, when the first payout is due, it will be better as Hive on the account will give also resource credits.

Love you nick, btw, reminds me of the 90's with Beavis&Butthead (hope that is not offensive). Did you move to Guatemala? From where? Nice that you have also kids. Do you home school them?

Thank you for the hints and the warm welcome!

Welcome to Hive. I am delegating (loan) you some Resource Credits so you can continue you can do all the fun things in here like replying to all the other comments.

You have been an experience saver! I'm catching up with all the comments for now. I think upvoting does not make sense, or? I've read some tutorials about delegating, but first need to build up the stake.

Upvoting is fine, you need to build a good habit of upvoting quality content and it shows your support for that post/comment even if it isn't worth much.

And yes, delegating doesn't make sense if you have little Hive Power, so just increase your stake first and gain some more experience here.

Thank you, was thinking to use resources wisely, as the few Hive are not giving anything in the end. Answering and spending a little more time is showing more support and interest, or I might be wrong in here.

Welcome to Hive. it's a great place to be.

Thank you! As I see till now, yes, it is!

Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
