Hello Steemians, I'm Sylvia and curious to meet you!
Hi everyone, my name is Sylvia and I’m a 24-year-old student from Germany. I’m currently registrated since a few days on Steemit, but feeling still totally overwhelmed by all these things going on here. So now I want to take the first little step in the Steemit universe and introduce you myself.
First of all you should know I’m a person that get excited real easily. Nearly every day I found something interesting or get a new idea to try out. This can be some kind of activity, some food, some lifehack or anything else. I mean, we only have this one life, so why not living it with all the opportunities that were given us? I want to let you take part in my discoveries and report you my thoughts on it.
I’m also interested in a sustained, healthy and natural lifestyle. As I’m getting older, I’m becoming more and more aware of things that are bad for me, other people or the planet. That’s the reason why I‘m trying to put slowly improvements to my life. You can follow me on this journey if you like to.
Meanwhile I’m studying educations with the subjects history and geography and will graduate in a year. To be honest, I have no clue what to do after it. I lived my entire life in the same town, so I would found it nice to finally leave it, go out and see something more from the world.
I’m happy to join the Steemit community and am curious how it will develop in the future. Because of english is not my mother language, I’m not sure if I will continue to write in english, switch to german or use both languages. We’ll see.
So, one last time,
Welcome to Steemit @sylviemeh upvote :)
Oh that's nice jonathanxvi 😊
Hallo Sylvia,
willkommen auf Steemit.
Falls du diesen Sommer eine Wattwanderung machst, bin ich schon gespannt auf deinen Post. 😉
Ja man weiß nie, wo es einen noch hinverschlägt 😊
schöner post, ich mag das letzte Bild sehr, diese Weite, herrlich!
bin auf mehr gespannt ;)
Upvote gibts wenn die power zurück kommt!
Dankeschön @travellingtomi :)
Ja mir gefällt die Weite auf dem Bild auch, das entstand auf Antelope Island in den USA ^^
Always nice to meet another geography nerd!
I wrote a little guide for new Steemit users (there's even a resource in there specifically for geographers!) that I like to share:
Welcome to Steemit! It's got a steep learning curve, but it's worth it in the long run if you keep putting in the time! Just know that it will take quite a while before you start getting attention and followers. The secret to success? Keep posting high quality content regularly, and make sure to search out other people's posts, read them, and give relevant comments.
Tagging is extremely important. Always make sure to use all five possible tags, and to keep them relevant. You can always just tag something "blog" or "photography" or something else really general (so long as it's still relevant) to fill the quota if you need to- most of your tags should be established ones, though one or two less used ones are fine.
Posting more than four times a day can reduce your potential rewards, as well as turning off potential users. (I aim for one post per day most of the time.) Consistency is important, though, so you should try to post often.
Always make sure to attach a photo to your posts! You should also have a finished profile: Write a description, add a profile picture and a banner- neither needs to be of you, necessarily, but you should have something- and set a website.
There are a lot of really good resources out there for minnows (new users). You should check out the following groups and services, they offer a lot of valuable resources to new users:
@thesteemengine (Check this one out first- they're an extremely supportive group.)
@qurator (These guys offer an excellent liftime upvote to accounts that post consistent quality content.)
@originalworks (Whenever you write an original post, tag this account- they'll verify it's original and upvote you.)
@steembasicincome (Another lifetime upvote option.)
@steemstem (The biggest and best STEM curation group in the game. If you're interested in writing or reading about science, check these guys out!)
@geopolis (A fairly new science curation group, this one's dedicated to the study of the Earth.)
And, again, the biggest thing is just patience. Breakout successes are incredibly rare on Steemit- you've got to find your way there through perseverance and hard work. It takes time, but you'll eventually succeed if you put in the work.
Please feel free to repost this guide on the posts of other minnows you run into!
Wow, I think that will help me a lot. I didn't even know there were groups on Steemit ^^ And I will work on my profile. So, thank you for your detailed answer and nice to meet you :)
Nice to meet you too! I went ahead and gave you a follow, excited to hopefully see some cool geography content from you! Let me know if you have any questions, I'm always happy to help.

Hi Sylvie,
schön das du hier bist! Das kostet ja auch ein bisschen Mut, sich hier so zu präsentieren! Finde ich :)
Du warst glaub ich schon kurz bei mir vorbeigehuscht hatte ich gesehn. Also, ich begleite dich mal und schau mir so an was du schönes zu sagen hast. Es ist wirklich ganz schön überwältigend, was hier so alles auf einen einprasselt. Aber wir haben ja Zeit! :D
Auf bald und eine gute Zeit hier! Vernetz dich!!!
Herzlichen Gruß, Mo*
Hallo Mo*, ja richtig, deinen Blog hatte ich auch schon gefunden und für gut befunden :D Noch mehr Mut kostet es mich eigentlich, auf Englisch zu schreiben haha ^^ Ich gucke zur Zeit, ob ich hier auch eine deutsche Community finde. Dann wünsche ich dir heute mal einen tollen Tag und bis bald :) Sylvie
Das mit dem Englisch geht mir auch so. Guck mal hier, der Übersetzer ist super. Damit mache ich es nur noch. Deutsch schreiben und dann einkopieren! Passt nicht immer alles rein, dann halt hintereinander! Übersetzer
Die deutsche Community gibt es auch. Wenn du bei den Tags immer an erster Stelle "deutsch" schreibst, finden sie dich auch von alleine ;)
Auf bald!
