I’m new! And not entirely sure what I’m doing …

in #steemit7 years ago

Hello!

This is me! A Brit living abroad and loving every day. Although right now, it’s too hot and I’m sweating too much to sit on my new sofa.

So Steemit looks like fun :-) I struggle to find the time to read about how many hours my old school-friends kids’ don’t sleep for and what my ex-work mates are having for their tea so Facebook is little-visited these days. I’m not down with the kids enough to get Snapchat and 140 characters is never enough so here I am. I’ll give it a bash.

What can I bring to the party? Well, maybe just waffle but I like to read and write about photography because that’s what I’ve done for the last 11 years. I’m a bit of a fitness freak and diet fiend although the shape of my body doesn’t always look testament to that! As I said, I’m an expat living in Umbria Italy so all things Italy and travel in general interests me. I love Asia.

I also sell boxes. Doesn’t float your boat? OK, I won’t write much about that.

OK, bring it on …

Thank you :-)

Welcome from equally sweltering Costa Rica! ... do you by chance have family in west wales? I know 3 families in Wales with the surname Turner!

Costa Rica - wow! I bet that's a nice place to live. Oddly, my maiden name was Lazarus and my family originate from South Wales. I have married into the Turners but my husband's family isn't linked to Wales in any way. So, the answer is kind of yes but no ...

Hi amyturner. Welcome to steem community! Great post, I will follow you. Please follow me too at @gaman

Thank you for the kind welcome :-)

Hey and welcome to Steemit :)
A Brit Steemian here also so I'm hoping I can help out a bit. Steemit is a bit of a learning curve but it's great fun.

As the Welcomebot says. Make sure you get Discord and go to the PALnet channel https://discordapp.com/invite/HYj4yvw
It's a great place and for new Steemians and there's loads of people that will be happy to help.
Also, check out what myself and others at #promo-uk are doing. We are working on getting more Brits to the channel!
Finally, there's also a #TeamGB started that is a bit of fun for SteemWars :) that are looking for new members :)

Enjoy!!

Thank you for the kind welcome, for the tips and links. I'll certainly check them out in order to try and gain some semblance of understanding!
