Today is my one-year Steemit Anniversary!
On this day 1 year ago, 25th July 2016, I posted my introduceyourself on Steemit.
I can't believe how time has flown by and how Steemit has changed.
I'm glad I discovered Steemit and its awesome community - definitely the most supportive community among all social media platforms!
During my one year on Steemit, I have created 446 posts (more than 1 a day!), 5036 comments, and upvoted other people's content 12607 times.
That's incredible! Blogging on Steemit has become a routine and I still enjoy it as much as when I wrote my first introduceyourself post.
I have reached reputation level 74.8 (Top 12 Author on Steemit), and almost 3600 followers.
Who remembers what Steemit was like 1 year ago?
There was no reputation, no profile pictures or bio, , and the editor and reward system have changed completely.
It's amazing to see how much the Steemit platform and its community have grown in this one year.
I'm glad that I was a part of it since the early stages and witnessed everything first-hand.
Now, I am looking forward to my 2nd year on Steemit and I'm sure we will see even more amazing changes!
Of course, there is no better way for me to celebrate than by DANCING!
Today I want to share a special freestyle video that I've purposely not published until now.
This video was shot in Barcelona, on top of the Tibidabo mountain with a breathtaking view over the valleys and over the city!
Take a look at the celebration freestyle video here:
Song: "Pink Lemonade" by Katuchat
We shot this video just after the sun had set behind the mountains.
As you can see the sky was still colorful and the light was gloomy as it just started to get dark.
Although there were quite a lot of other tourists around the panorama platform, enjoying the weather and the gorgeous views, I didn't care: I just had to dance!
As you can tell, I suddenly became the center of attention and all the tourists were watching as I danced and @soldier was recording me - but that didn't matter to me.
Freestyling to an awesome song is already fun, but doing so in amazing weather, in a great location with a gorgeous view in spain - what could be better?
I'd like to thank all of my followers, and in general all of the readers of my blog.
What I love about Steemit is that you can share anything you like - on my blog, I like to post a mixture of different topics.
There are no rules - I just like to post about whatever comes to my mind and share some interesting stories with my audience.
Blogging continuously for one year has been an amazing journey and I'm looking forward to the future of Steemit!
And let's not forget about the awesome Steemians from all over the world that I've connected with - whether online or in real life!
I went to different Steemit Meetups and actually organized one myself, I shot a promotional video for steemit and connected with so many on you through steemit.chat.
The community on steemit is truly unique, everyone has a different story to share and connecting with other Steemians is always exciting.
Thank you for making my first year on Steemit an amazing one. Year number 2 begins now!

Oh boy do I remember the old days. I really wasn't too sure if Steem was going to make it for a time, but I am certainly glad that it did. Steem is 100% better with you @sirwinchester! Here's to many more years of quality content!
Thank you for the compliment, I appreciate it!
And yes when Steemit first started (and then went into the "down phase") nobody was quite sure how it would turn out.. But I'm glad we're all here, 1 year later!
Happy 1 Year Anniversary bro, keep up the consistent quality posts, inspirational advice and innovative knowledge. The celebration freestyle dance was super fresh as always. You are a pillar in the Steemit community.
Thanks so much for your kind feedback!
You're very welcome
It's my birthday too! Happy 1 year @sirwinchester!

Happy anniversary @sirwinchester ! You´re always killing me with your freestyles and this one is really special to me. I remember the day when it was recorded and the song is one of my favorites as well! Imagine that you hit the beats without knowing what comes next is freaking my mind. Thank you for being such an interesting steemer and being so creative while constantly posting! And sorry for shaking the camera :P
Yes, this video was special! Thanks again for helping me record and cheers to another year!
A full year wow! I bet when you look back at it, it seems like a blur and you wonder where all the time went lol. Just remember all of the mile stones and what you accomplishments along the way.
Yes, I can hardly believe I've written almost 450 posts - that really seems like a blur. so crazy to look back on it all!

Yes the times were different - I'm glad I experienced everything first hand.
Posting regularly for one month is already an achievement, keep it up!
Thank you ❤
Wishing you all the best on your 2nd year.
Great video! I admire people who can dance well. Very smooth flow! Good music choice too! Your story inspires me to do more on the platform, and as this is only my second day here, it's clear there's a lot to look forward to. I subbed your YT channel and clicked like on the video as well as following you here and upvoting your post. Thank you for sharing your story and I toast your success!

Honored to hear that, thank you!

Thank you so much for your kind words!
Yes you should definitely keep going although starting with a new account on steemit isn't always easy. but sticking with it pays off!
i couldn't agree more! Myself and Steemit have a love/hate relationship most of the time! Most nights I am angry with it, but it's still the fist thing I check in the morning =)
Happy Steemit Birthday. You have accomplished so much in only a year. It's good to see you celebrate with a fun dance!
Thank you! appreciate it!
Congrats, as well as happy Birthday! 😆
