18 years old, trying to figure things out and see the world (My first post)

in introduceyourself •  6 years ago  (edited)

Hey,

This is my first post here on Steemit, i can't say im 100% sure what this is or how it works but im sure i can figure it out along the way.

I'm an 18yo british male living near silverstone circuit. In a couple of weeks i finish education and will be working hard so that i can play harder.

In November of this year I am planning on moving to Banff, Alberta, Canada to follow my dreams of doing a ski season there. After that we will see where the adventure takes me and what other parts of the world I can explore.

Im interested in Travel, Snowsports, Motorsports and am fascinated by people's life stories and the hustle that goes along with it.

I'm currently studying sports science at college and on the side am a Swimming Instructor. Now that you know a bit about me I would love to here about some of your stories and interests.

You can see some of what i get up to over on my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charliey4tes/

Before i go here's a photo of a Lamborghini Centenario that i had to look after at silverstone yesterday. (unfortunately i did not get a go in it)

Thanks,

Charlie.

Welcome to Steemit! I am sure you will love it up in Alberta, @oldtimer lives and loves it there. ;)

Banff is such a beautiful place to spend a whole season! It is beautiful in the spring (If/when they get it!) but, there is always summer! Bring warm clothes!

Good luck and if you don't know something, ask! Anyone will help!

Welcome to Steemit @charliey4tes :)

Welcome!

Stick around and soon, who knows, you might be able to afford your own lambo even ;-)

I know tons of Brits on Steemit, you guys are everywhere :D

Banff is lovely, and let me welcome you even it's still months to go, to Canada :) (Jasper is where my family and I love going to visit, instead Banff, btw)

Cheers!

Welcome to Steemit charliey4tes. The official FAQ can be found here and has A LOT of information https://steemit.com/faq.html - Also remember, Steemit is just ONE of the sites built that uses Steem the blockchain. You should also check out DTube and DSound for starters and if you're a gamer, Steem Monsters! There are many other cool apps but I can't list them all here, there's just too many! But I'd also like to mention Steempeak, it's a better blogging platform that has a lot of cool features. Welcome to the blockchain! :) Oh, and if you're interested in creating your own tokens or smart contracts, check Steem engine!

Thankyou Janne, i will make sure to have a look around as many of the blockchain applications as i can :)

Welcome to Steem, Charlie! Wishing you success in your work so that you can fully enjoy your move to Canada. Thanks for the pic of the sweet Lamborghini, here's to the hope that you can drive one someday. :^) Please don't hesitate to ask any questions that you may have and have a terrific day.


We encourage everyone to explore the various posts and to leave personal comments on those that you wish (for example - thoughts regarding the content or a sharing of a similar experience you've had). This platform thrives through interaction as it's the best way to build relationships with other Steemians while finding communities and initiatives that peak your interests.

We like to advise bloggers to cite if images, videos, etc. used in their posts are of their own creation. This practice gives the creators an opportunity to have it clearly labeled that the works portrayed are the rightful property of the party posting it.

Another tip that we share with everyone is to be careful of copyright infringement when using material that is not of their original creation. Content (for example - images from a website) that grants permission for reuse is acceptable for content creators to utilize within their posts provided there is appropriate attribution to the source. Here's a link that will provide you with more information.

Welcome to the Steem Community.

Hey welcome to steemit. I have a question for you. What's your football team. Am assuming you do watch football.

Am an Arsenal fan.

I actually don't watch or follow football at all, however my family is from west bromwich and my dad supports them so would probably be them if i did.
