Hi to all steemians on this community,
I am very excited to write this post on how our meetup went.

Early morning today, all members of steemians in our hostel started preparation for the meetup.

We took our bath around 8 am and we fully gathered infront of Paradise to take Candoo (yellow yellow) to the location.
