Hi all

My name is Mark and my Steem account verification email finally landed in my inbox whilst on holiday in beautiful Rome for the first time! Here's a pic of me and the wife at the Trevi Fountain yesterday (obviously I'm the dodgy looking bloke on the left):

My wife is originally from Vietnam and she is now living in Birmingham, England with me, talk about a change in lifestyle for her! 😂

I consider myself as a modern day global hippie. My biggest concern is saving our beautiful planet and what sounds cliche but, "world peace". Human and animal cruelty is something that keeps me awake at night, somethings you can't unsee 😔.

Been a STEEM coin owner since November last year and keen advocate of crypto / the blockchain being a world changer - for the better!

I also wanted a platform to share my thoughts on the world and although I have a busy worklife I would like to start blogging and creating content. I myself spend too much time online, in fact I don't know why I pay VirginMedia for a TV package nowadays, mainstream TV doesn't scratch the information itch I always have so I seek the web for solace.

On that note I must now add more blisters to the feet and head out to explore more of this amazing city. First impressions are the Italians are far friendlier to the tourist than I thought they would be 😊. But what's with the mineral water obsession?! Keep cracking open bottles of what I think is standard water only to find that it's fizzy, eurgh!

Over and out fellow Steemers, much love. ❤️

P.S. I have YouTube and Twitter accounts with the same username, hopefully enough evidence to prove that I am indeed a real person.
