Please allow me to introduce myself to the Steemit community for the first time.
My name is Erik van Zyl. I am 28 years old and live in Cape Town, South Africa. I have been testing Steemit out for the past 2 days since my account has been activated and felt this was the right time to tell you all a bit about myself.
From when I was just a little boy.
Till now a husband to my beautiful wife. The 8th of April 2018 will be our one year anniversary!
Our two dog children, Bella and Charlie.
My passions in life are exercise, making food and just having fun. I am a motivated and driven person with lots of ambitions and I try to stay positive at all times.
I played rugby for the most of my life, up to professional level, until I finished my studies in Engineering.
2017 Cape Town 10's, Playing for the GNC sponsored team.
I am currently working as an Structural Engineer here in South Africa, and have been working in the Engineering industry for the past few years. Engineering taught me many things. The most important thing was to always think outside the box. Never to stop looking for opportunities in life. Nothing is given for free.
Until recently, I was introduced to the crypto space, mostly bitcoin and all the altcoins. While reading up on all the different uses of blockchain technology, I came across the Steemit platform and its community. I want to grow with this community by sharing my experiences and views on life. - From cooking my favourite meals such as; my delicious oxtail stew, and baking my favourite desserts ranging from Lemon Meringue pie to the famous South African Malva pudding (I like to experiment, so it gets interesting most of the time). I have been trained professionally for most of my life, so I will be sharing all my different training tips I have picked up over the years.
This is the start of my first chapter with you all on Steemit.
Steem on Guys!!!
Till next time....
