One year ago, @creutzy told me about this new blockchain based social media. Only problem...

I didn't know what a blockchain was. Or cryptocurrencies. Or just bitcoin at least. :P

Therefore, at the time, I couldn't understand why this social media is SO special. It took me a while to learn but I managed, kind of ;) He opened his account the 14th of May [on Zuckerberg's birthday muahaha!] and I did the very next day.

About 1600 followers later, with almost 61 rep and 4 accounts I think it's time for a recap!

This is my intro post... oh the memories!

So what happened this last year...?

• I learned about cryptocurrencies - I started trading and my knowledge boomed! I still don't know a lot, but it's a start!
• I went to @steemfest and my life changed forever since I became more engaged and met people who would become my friends really fast! @immarojas and @teodora plus @sjennon and @things [who are visiting from Berlin this weekend yayyyy!] being just 4 of the closest ones! If I list all the cool people I met in Lisbon it'll be a never ending post haha!
• I created @steemsugars - A group of women [and some guys!] with the purpose of bringing more ladies into the platform! Currently we are 250+ members and it is going quite well! We have an official logo thanks to @oscarcc89, an official song thank to @soundwavesphoton and an amazing promo video thanks to @rocking-dave - THANK YOU GUYS! Check out the account for more and here's an invite to our discord if you'd like to join: https://discord.gg/D2V8nq9
• @steemsugars took me to London, for a SteemSugar meet up where -among other amazing people such as @colossus39- I met ... @redrica! The Light in my Life hahaha !!!! The most energetic mom I've ever met, organized, cute, sweet, with an incredible deep voice and a sexy British accent !!! She is currently a Coordinator on our Discord plus she visited Copenhagen a while ago - here's the post: https://steemit.com/steemsugars/@meanmommy33/redrica-in-copenhagen-or-about-friendship
• I was also organizing @copensteem - the first Steemit meet up in Scandinavia and the reason @redrica was initially coming to CPH - with @creutzy, but due to lack of participation we postponed it for probably later in the summer. Follow the account to be updated and please share to people you might think they'll join! Many thanks to @katharsisdrill for the Logo!
• I worked for about 6 months at @ocd as a Curator for Italian Content! That was pretty amazing, but my limited time wasn't giving to the team everything that should so I had to quit. Many thanks to @acidyo though and to all the guys - we had so much fun!
• I was involved in other curation programs, art programs, and promoting steemit programs, that's how I evolved into the platform! The most important one being the @sndbox incubator for which I try to create quality content! Thank you @hansikhouse and @voronoi for your support, constant help and trust! The new team is going to take over soon, but it sure was an amazing ride so far!

Unfortunately the guy who put me into this, my partner -in life and in crime haha!- @creutzy, is not that active anymore...

But soon enough hopefully this will change!
Another two real life friends are @sebi99p and @rbm :D
Still no news about @steemfest this year, but I hope we'll hear about it from @roelandp soon!
Steemit remains my happy place, even though I don't have as much time anymore to dedicate because of work...

So thank you everyone for reading and for your constant support! And as I always say, don't forget to smile!

Yours
