Hello,
this is my first post! I’m Italian, I’m 25 now, but I get older each year :)
My plan is to share a lot with you, about my life and the things one learns living in my part of the world, because I think each one of us has the opportunity to learn something unique from the place and the culture he/she lives in. Knowledge that has to be shared, good or bad. And if we could have eyes that see straight inside people, whatever they are and wherever they’re from… then we would probably see more than our words could describe. And maybe some bowels too...
What I do and what I'll write about
First, I intend to share my love for nature, food, journeys, music, writing, poetry, philosophy. I’ll try to entertain you with real stories and maybe write novels of fantasy; I'd like to have fun experimenting, while also trying to improve my english. I’ll take you through the places I visit, the things I learn every day and my own critical thinking. But not only that...
I’ll tell you about what I do in life, and what I do to be economically independent in a region which is not famous to be economically strong. How I try to reinvent myself continuously, doing what I can to pay the bills.
My great passion is music, which led me to be a music producer and sound engineer, currently working as a freelancer for local and international musicians, labels, producers. Another thing, quite recently, has become the world of cryptocurrencies and this brings me to how I came here…
How I came here
It was during one of my re-designs of the self that I came to discover the crypto-world, thanks also to some friends who used to talk a lot about bitcoin. But they only talked. So, I decided to make some money riding the last financial bubble, and some months after I discovered Steemit and the opportunity it gives to share and earn from both the crypto market and the sharing itself. I think that sharing should be the key to evolution, to enhance our collective consciousness; a platform which invites people to share and rewards them with money… sounds to me like a step forward into the future.
Over the last month I read a lot about it and now I truly think that if this mechanism works Steemit could be the best thing on the web. But I’m not just jumping in to make money and get rich fast; in my experience money can only be made with time and effort. So, my first goal here will be to make quality, original, content… while enjoying it!
Who I am now
@Frank.Freedom is my digital name. When Steemit asked me to choose a nickname I panicked, but I knew I wanted a complete name that I could wake up with and connect to the Matrix.
Frank because: 1, I recognize the importance of being frank 2, it’s the name I gave to the main character of my first novel 3, because I’ve been told my mother was about to call me that way (Italian equivalent) before I came out with a disappointed face.
Freedom because I wanted to have a surname, and I wanted it to have a meaning for me. Freedom is what I’m looking for, here and everywhere. It’s the only answer I can give to the question: what’s the single most important thing in life? There are many things to be enjoyed in the world, but none of these are enjoyable without freedom. Do you agree?

Hey, just a friendly bit of information about passwords. I was hacked within my first month and lost all my SBD. Know your passwords and only use your posting key for day to day posts!
For Steemit specifically there are levels of passwords, understanding these will save you a lot of stress and loss.
Your Master Password is used ONLY for when you first log in, to change your settings or reset your password. I will explain how I and many others were hacked and how I could have easily prevented the loss below. But repeat this to yourself: I do NOT need to use the mater password, I do NOT need to use the master password. This password you should print or some other method ( now is your chance to get body tattoo clues Memento style) and keep it offline. This is like your lock box, safe or storage unit key.
Posting Key is what you use to log in to another device and post, comment, or upvote. This is the only password you should keep handy and really the only key you would use on a regular basis. If you insist on 'saving' your password on your computer or phone for easy logging in, this would be the ONLY one to save. If someone steals it, they can do some damage, but it will be mostly superficial and easily remedied.
-Active Key is what you use when you are doing any transactions in your wallet, transferring money in or out. If somebody gets this, they will be able to immediately transfer your Steem tokens and your SBD to another account. It is then gone, just as if you had been pick-pocketed. Even though we can see where it goes, unless you have the expertise or connections to some how track this to an end user and exact revenge, there is no other entity to cover the losses. A bank insures your money, but in exchange they are able to have access to it, and they use it to make themselves more money ( find ways to charge you fees, or lend it to others and keep the profit). The insurance you get from them is not 'free'. IF you have your active key stolen or hacked, the hackers WILL get your liquid money, but you will be able to immediately use your master password to lock them out and regain control, meaning all of your Steem Power ( SP-which is the bulk of your account) will be untouched, and you will be able to mitigate the damage they can do from posting or using your votes.
