Hello, dear Steemians, who read this!
First, let me not apologize for my English, but tell you I am not a native speaker. But I do my best in showing my respect to the English language while writing this. I let go of all my fears about not having the perfect English skills. Instead, I follow my excitement and my curiosity. It's just much easier to connect to a geat, international community through the English language. To all the German, French, Slovakian, Dutch and Spanish speaking people reading this...
Ich grüß dich, salut, dobrý deň, goedendag and hola!
That's all I can scratch together.
The reason why I am so excited is: I just discovered Steemit. Well, to be honest, I didn't. My lovely partner @kemane introduced it to me. And I couldn't believe, that a fair and creative platform like this would exist. Here, I feel like every artist is being given the chance to be able to be as free and expressive in his creativity like he or she was as a child.

For me, it feels like that. And I compare it to a huge and colorful flea market. I tried to sell a lot of stuff on flea markets already. And even if there was not much financial outcome on every one, I loved the feeling of being free and able to sell my stuff without having to learn how to retail properly or without having to overcome a lot of bureaucratic borders. I could connect with people, speak to them and learn about me and others while gaining some income.
So here we are now
and I have this same feeling of being allowed to be a human being.
Without having to learn this and that or becoming a "finished" person. Because we are never finished, and this is what I learned. In the past, I tried hard to satisfy this illusion that was implanted by school and society. So I tried to study 3 majors; Journalism, English, and History. Not at the same time. I always gave up on one, as I felt it was just not working for me. However, I still wanted to become a "finished" person so I tried the next one. Soon I entirely gave up on the idea of studying on a university. I tried to learn the great and honorable profession of midwifery. After being traumatized by german hospital hierarchies I couldn't handle the 3 years of apprenticeship and gradually accepted my quirks.
and just saw that I was whole already.
I saw, that I already made a living, working as an actress and voice actress , in theatre, tv, and film since I was 14. All of that without any official education. I just learned it by doing it, having fun. And the most important: Being excited and curious. So the best thing I could do is just to follow that feeling.
Sorry, that sounds like I just had Sex. What I really mean, I consciously received my wonderful daughter. (to put things into perspective, you have to have sex for that, so of course. I had.)
After the huge adventure of the last 2 years, where I experienced more than I can process: I feel, I'm ready to dive back into my creative space and share it with the world!
I am writing since I learned how to write. I wrote all kinds of stories. When I was around 20 I started to write poems, and I do it since then. Also in the beginning of my 20s, I started doing some poetry slam and experimented with different styles of writing. Currently, I'm blogging a lot about being a mother, a woman and traveling the world.
I'm looking forward to sharing more content, to process my experiences, connect with people, inspire or just to entertain. Nice to be here!

Dear Neeqi, thank you so much for your warm welcome!! Its so nice to hear from you, because I really like your creative work :) Kemane showed it to me already.

I have got a lot of footage from that time and I will put up some vlogs in the next time, hope you will enjoy it! much love to you
