The Girl Behind the Posts + A Little Bit More - #IntroduceYourself

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

Merely a month ago I signed up to be part of the Steemit community. And I can honestly say, it is one of the best platforms I have ever joined!

I used to find myself mindlessly scrolling through social media and other online apps. Most of the time, not even registering what I was looking at – just wasting away the time scroll by scroll. Now I find myself enjoying my explorations in the Steemit world.

I decided it’s about time I introduce myself and give you a small glimpse in to the life of @bekahluu by answering a few random questions.

Where am I from?

I was born & raised in the beautiful country of New Zealand. My family made the move to Australia in my High School Years, where I have been living ever since. I do consider both home, but I'll always be a Kiwi Kid :)

What's a hobby of mine?

Whilst I am guilty of abandoning it for quite some time, I do have an acoustic guitar, which I am still in the early stages of learning. And yes, I’m a lefty!

What is one of my fears?

Pylons. Yeup, you read that right. Those tower-like metal structures used for electricity. And while I have adapted to phasing them out from a distance, there’s just something about that eerie humming and being in close proximity (especially at night) that makes my stomach drop.

Favourite food?

Tough question. I have many. But, I will probably always answer this one with my go-to… Sushi!

But a good burger & chips never goes astray!

What do I aspire to achieve?

My main goal at the moment is to travel. Besides going between my homes (NZ & Aus), I have not yet released my inner travel bug. I want to see the world, discover new places and feed that hunger for something entirely new.

So that’s some basics about me. If there’s more you want to know, drop a comment below 😊

Hi @bekahluu, I just spent 5 months in the South Island and loved it so much. Re: guitar learningz, I would highly encourage you to explore jazz/maj7/min7 chords sooner than later. I've been playing for about 14 years and only recently discovered them a couple years ago... I don't even know what I was doing before! They're the most beautiful. You could start with an open Amaj7 -- 002120 :)

Hey @kindstranger, glad to hear you enjoyed your NZ experience!
Thanks for the guitar tips, I'll be sure to check them out. Pretty keen to get back in to it :)

Great introduction my friend!! :) welcome to the family

Happy to be a part of it :)

Good post. I want to visit New Zealand and Australia sometime in the future...

Welcome to steemit. Quick question, what is the deal with aussies making kiwi jokes? Do kiwis take that seriously or is it just like football type rivalry.

I thought you would be the perfect person to ask considering you perspective.

Also, checkout #teamaustralia

Heya @brucebrownftw - in my opinion, its just cheeky banter. However, there is definitely some rivalry when it comes to sports, especially rugby. Sometimes it does get annoying. But as I always say to people who try to pull a quick one on me, "tell me one I haven't heard, then I'll be impressed." Us Kiwi's can take a joke (and can dish it back lol), but atleast be original 😅

Ok. I have been curious about that as the Aussies get pretty relentless with it. I mean I don't even understand the jokes most of the time. Good to know it is all in fun.

Love the Kiwi rugby chant.. epic AF (slang www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=AF) .. getting chills just thinking about it

@brucebrownftw Don't get me wrong, there are those out there that do get carried away and just don't know when to stop. Do you mind me asking where you are from? It's interesting hearing this from a different perspective.

And yeah, the Haka (Maori war chant) always gets the chills going - it's pretty much the only thing I'll watch when it comes to the rugby lol

From the US. Originally California, but Colorado is my home. I traveled a lot and got to visit Australia. The people were very cool and i had a great experience. I also met some Australian airman and soldiers when i was in the military.. very down to Earth.

I really appreciate the US (warts and all). But if i had to live somewhere else Australia would have to be on my top 5. I only have glimpses of New Zealand. Everything i have seen has been good.. except the jokes.. lol but its just jokes. I notice Australians don't really have mouth filter.lol

Girl you are so inspiring, welcome

Thanks girl :D
