Sometimes you have nothing to lose if you try some things and have much to lose if you don't try. Something similiar happened to me, when accidentally tried Steemit three months ago and now i am almost addicted with it, spending many hours per day on it.
Best luck to your country to pass through this difficult time.
Being a social person @dray91eu, steemit is the best place for you to meet new people and make friends, learn new things, practice your love in graphics designing and why not , transfer your knowledge to other people.
Wow .. This was cool mate, and about the transferring of my knowledge, I will work that out here on steemit, will keep you updated about it soon... Nice having you on my post @digitalking
