Hi everyone,
I'm very new to this sort of thing and hoping it might help me break out of my shell a bit.
My name is Shanelle I live in New Zealand with my husband and son. This year I have taken a year off work (Thank you Hubby)
to be a stay at home mum and also to get a few things done around our little old place.
I'm classed as one of those Jake of all trades and a master of none Ill give any thing ago around the house. Other things I'm interested in is tramping, trail running and gardening.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the steemit community works.
Thanks for reading everyone have a great night.

Hello and Welcome to the Steemit family. i'll be looking forward to your posts. lets support each other follow me back @manofmiracles
Howdy @nightowl? Welcome to steemit :]
Hello and welcome! Please consider adding a photo to your post. You'll get a lot more attention with one. Is Shanelle a native New Zealand name? It does not sound like it. I'm interested in New Zeland as a possible place to relocate, so I'm looking forward to seeing what you have to share! How's the winter there?
There are a ton of other webpages to help you with Steemit. Here are some of the best for beginners:
https://steemd.com/ (This site is used to keep track of your voting power and other stats. You do not want to run out of voting power, and you only get so much per day. I keep my voting power around 80% for example.)
https://steem.makerwannabe.com/ (This site will tell you who follows you, who unfollows you, and who mutes you. It is great for meeting new people too. I regularly check it to see who has followed me to see if I should follow them back.)
https://steemit.chat/ (This site is the official chat webpage for Steemit. There are Discord channels too, but I usually stick to the official site. Come in to network and meet new friends. You can directly message people there too, so it makes it easier to communicate with your closest friends.)
Oh yeah, there are a lot of bots on here. If you see a cookie cutter reply, especially to your intro post, it is almost certainly a bot. Check the account's reputation. If it is low, I would recommend just ignoring them. Everything is public on Steemit, so you can go look at an account's comments and replies. Are they all the same? It's a bot.
Again, welcome, and I've followed you! If you have any questions about getting started, look me up on the chat site.
Hi Finnian, Thank you for the points I will doing some reading up on the websites you have listed. You will love New Zealand so many great places to see.
How cold does it get in the winter? Is there a "rainy" season? Sure, I could Google it, but it's better to get the info straight from the source! haha
