Hello @granam!
Welcome to Steemit. From reading your introduction it seems that you will have a lot to write about. Your trips around the world while you had your business would make great post to share. I love to read as well but haven't had anytime lately with a toddler always running around. The gingerboys looked tasty, I bet you all had lots of fun baking them. Cooking recipes are pretty popular around here. Once you get the picture taking down, you will do great. 😊
Steemit is a pretty tough platform for any of us to jump on and try to learn. It can get a little overwhelming and sometimes discouraging. That's where the @greetersguild comes in. As a Greeter Volunteer, I am here to give you a warm welcome into Steemit. I'm here for encouragement and support. If you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to ask to me. I will answer them the best that I can or I will direct you to someone that can. Anytime that you feel you have written a quality post, you can use the tags #greetersguild and #newbieresteemday. They are both meant for newbies to use as a way to help them hopefully get some more exposure at a faster pace. I encourage you to follow @greetersguild and @newbieresteemday, both of them are filled with Steemians who have a goal to support newbies through the tough beginning stages of Steemit. Good luck, have fun and steem on!
Thank you for the welcome. There is no doubt that I am struggling with the images - how to size them correctly, how to load them, should they have borders etc.
