Hello Steemians!!!
My first post was quite an in depth overview of many parts of my life but I realize now that, even though it was about me, and technically I was "introducing myself", it was not a traditional Steemit #introduceyourself post.
Well now I feel left out and want to introduce myself properly.
My name is Jon and I am lostinthewoods. I was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada and have lived in many places since then, mostly in British Columbia, and Saskatchewan. I spent most of my teenage years hitchhiking around BC. I really loved being on the road, always something new ahead, amazing sights and incredible architecture that I had never seen before... Oh to be young again. I even hitchhiked to Kingston, Ontario. On the way I turned 18, spent one night in a drunk tank and many under the stars. Not every night under the stars was pleasant... Recently I have settled in Hope, British Columbia where I hope to do some backpacking and camping and fishing with my family. I will be taking lots of pictures to share with you guys along the way so that you all can see the beauty here.
I think that Steemit is a great community, it's nice to see everyone supporting each other like this. I am excited for the future here!
I am a privacy minded individual, although I have been slacking a lot lately. I like to use encryption apps to secure my communications and VPNs to obscure my location as often as possible. I will make a few posts about how I do this, and what my plans are for the future. Here is an article about how to use PGP on Windows.
Thank you again for your time, I am very happy to be here.
Here is my email address, and my PGP public key if you would like to encrypt a message to me.

Welcome on board, @lostinthewoods! I'm impressed with your intro. But me being not a tech person like you didn't understand what you mean by the long lines of very weird-looking, mumbo-jumbo characters at the end of your intro (END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK). Can you help?
One thing you said won my heart and for that reason I'm following you straight away - 'I am very happy to be here.'
Stay blessed, bro.
You can use the public key posted to encrypt a human readable message with software called PGP into an encrypted version which only @lostinthewoods can decrypt because he is the sole owner of the corresponding private key. The encrypted message would be the part you would send, for example by email.
Well said thank you!
