Hello and Willkommen bei Steemit! I love the cats - you can never have enough cat content ;)

Take your time and look around on Steemit. Read what you're interested in and write comments: tell the people why you like a post or don't like it, ask questions. Votes are not worth a lot in the beginning but (as you can feel right now) reading comments to your post makes you feel good :)

Try to find a community in your native language, even if it is small it will be helpful and a little "home" here in the big Steemit world. There are some Dapps around here that might interest you - if you like to take walks try Actifit. It's an app for your mobile that rewards you for your activity :)
