my name is John. I live in North Carolina. I have been a member of the Steemit community for two weeks now. I have been writing mostly movie and travel reviews with an occasional crypto or prepper post. Here is a bit about myself.
This photo is an excelsior Henderson SuperX. Mine is the same color and year but this is a stock photo. I purchased mine in 2000 when the company went bankrupt. I don't ride as much as I used to, but that just means my bike is in really good condition. I keep it garaged and try to get it out a couple times each year. I know, pitiful.
I love to travel. This photo was taken at Halong Bay, Vietnam in March. My wife and I take an international vacation every year along with some local ones. We will be in Vancouver next month. The countries I have visited include china, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, England, Germany, Bosnia, Finland, estonia, Canada, Mexico, Jamaica, Egypt, Israel, Italy, Portugal and Peru. I probably missed some. I have been to every state except Alaska. I lived in Hawaii for four years.
My favorite pass time is watching movies. I also enjoy writing (hence, steemit). I like good science fiction. I like pretty much everything written by Philip K Dick which includes blade runner, man in the high castle, minority report and total recall. I like Michael Crichton and Stephen king as well. Most of their books have been made into films as well.
I enjoy reading and writing and intend to be around steemit for a while. I like crypto and I am a light prepper. I say light because I am not a full on homesteader which is an fairly important part of prepping long term.
I look forward to growing my follow list and reading what you have written. I like to comment because it is more interactive than just voting. And it demonstrates I took the time to read what you wrote.
Welcome, I hope you choose the right pill, it will not be easy at the start but just work everyday, post a lot and you will see results coming.
I followed you, follow me back please :)
Thanks.
Nice to see you on steemit :D
Have a great day.
Thanks.
Welcome to Steemit....glad to have another North Carolinian on here!
Hello, welcome to Steemit and enjoy :-)
Welcome on Steemit! Hope you're making a good time on this wonderful community. it maybe hard at first but with right attitude we can make it here, Here is my 7 reasons that low/no payout is not the reason to quit on Steemit
nice photographs....
Welcome to steemit. I would love to hear more about our experiences traveling. My husband and I just began our journey. We recently moved to Rosarito, Baja California and plan to go to Belize then Ecuador. We have seen 32 out of 50 states and want to finish seeing the rest by way of RV. I'm looking forward to more of your posts.
Thanks. I have not been to either, but both sound like fun. I would like to do Ecuador/Amazon/Galapagos on a single trip at some point. The only state I have yet to visit is Alaska. I need to knock that one out just to feel complete.
Glad you came aboard! :-)
Thank you for the invitation!
Welcome home John! That's exactly what it felt like to me when i joined this awesome community. I think crypto and prepping go together, and i also stuck a toe in the water and then dived right in.
So kick back and grab a cold one! I think you're gonna like it here...
Thanks evernotice. Got the cold one now. :)
Welcome to the community! I am new too! I hope you can grow quickly
We can grow together. From minnows to dolphins. And maybe whales.
hi @Coldsteem !! Nice to see more people like you - here joining steemit !! Becoming a steamian is a great adventure! Here you can win money while bloging! At the beginning it wouldn't be easy, but it isn't impossible. So just write from your heart and everything will be allright. ! Cheers! Greetings, @khunpoom !
Thanks for the welcome. I have met some awesome people so far. Glad to meet more.
I read it lol, nice bike! What preppin stuff do you do?
Food storage, silver and gold. I have a seed bank and a really small garden. And of course lots of guns and ammo. But that's not necessarily prepping. I like to shoot.
Welcome to Steemit... Following.
Thanks.
Welcome to Steemit. Wow, you have travelled a lot, I will check out some of your travel reviews.
I hope you enjoy them. I don't want to duplicate content from TripAdvisor. But I have a ton of travel reviews there as well.
Hello! Nice to find a science-fiction fan. I am devoted to Stephen King, but I read a lot of other stuff, too. Well, I used to read before Steemit. Now, most nights I'm too tired or I'm busy thinking about a new post. Scince you're into movies as well I was wondering if you've seen the series based on The man in the high castle. I was so disappointed by the first episode that I gave up on it.
I lived season one. Season two was disappointing.
I wanted to watch it, but got busy. Have you seen The Booth at the End? I caught in on Hulu a couple years ago.
Hey from the UK john. Welcome to Steemit. Seems like you are doing just great already. Enjoy the journey.
Thanks mate.
Good post my friend i am @djnoel :)
Nice to meet you.
Hi John, we have a lot in common, in my younger days I loved riding motorcycles and travelling. Now retired, I am 5 years into trying to make a go of my little one acre homestead...thank goodness for my pension or I would never have made it. I have read science fiction since I was a pre-teen and have written a few stories, but never published. Looking forward to following your adventures.
Thanks for commenting. And actually reading. I wrote a children's book. Even had an agent. But if never got picked up. I may self publish it one day. No short stories though. Although I have read many. I have a collection of them in book form.
I'm a newbie, so lucky to be here. Looking forward to receiving your help
We can grow together here.
i love you
Welcome! If you enjoyed Blade Runner, we should connect. I'm a private investigator and residential security expert. Preparedness is related to residential security too.
You've only been here two weeks and have a 52 reputation?! Well done.
Thanks. I take it 52 is good. Not exactly sure how the reputation score works.
I'm good on the security front. I agree that is a key element. No use having supplies if you are not strong enough to keep them. I also have a security related background.
I can't wait for the new blade runner. Should be good.
Heading to check your blog now.
I am not sure exactly how it works, but time passing and high rep people upvoting you seems to be the fastest way to raise it.
Welcome to Steemit @coldsteem, enjoy the community and get paid :)
Thanks rayfa
Welcome friend! Do you delve at all into high fantasy? I just finished the last public work from Brandon Sanderson. He is a master of the fantasy genre. I recommend Mistborn if you enjoy an interesting world with a unique magic system!
I have read some fantasy, but not much.
Welcome John! You've been to a lot of places, hope you share about them.
I plan to share some travels. Thanks for commenting.
