Thank you @yanes94, I feel much the same way, I'd like to give back more some day. I don't mean just to upvote someone because they're breathing, but to give more support to all those who have worked hard and stayed with Steemit through the tough times :)
The getting to know others from around the world - in a more friendly environment - is also a big incentive for me. Seems other medias aren't as 'open' as Steemit.
Have a great day!
