My Introduction to Steemit

Hello Steemit community, my name is Paul. I live in the United States, in the state of North Dakota however, I am originally from the state of Illinois. That information seems irrelevant, I know, but this is the beginning of who I am as a person, as you will see. I have visited 46 states in the U.S. and I did it all by last minute road trips in my young adult years. In my travels, I have met some very interesting people and I’ve seen very interesting places. I do plan on telling some stories from the road as well as other topics.
I was first introduced to Steemit by Gregory Mannarino. He has a vlog on You Tube called “Market Report” I recommend it. Admittedly the first thing that enticed me to sign up for Steemit was the ability to earn as well as my loathing of Face Book; Steemit seems like a good alternative to FB. I enjoy social media and interaction with intelligent people. I believe it is healthy to have our ideas challenged in a constructive way. This is how we grow and develop our wisdom.
By using Steemit, I hope to learn a lot and to offer material that other people can learn from. I enjoy writing and now that I have an audience to write for, I hope to sharpen my rusty writing skills. Topics that I plan on writing about are: Adventure stories, precious metals, government theory, theories in general, history, geography and some other topics with no real category, most of which will derive from my personal experiences.
Thanks for reading my introduction. See you on Steemit.
