Hi steemit! I’m Ellie, a baker and travelholic!

Hi fellow steemians, 

My name is Ellie and I’m excited to get into the community that is steemit! I was first introduced to steemit by my sister, @joham and her friend, @yasminep. Being a millennial, I’d like to say I’m pretty good a technology and social media – but steemit is a whole new game for me. But I’m loving the community vibe on here! 

What I’m here for  

I'm a big lover of baking. Designing, cooking and, most importantly, eating - I just can’t get enough of the stuff!  I created my own Instagram account to showcase some of my bakes and share the love for the other amazing creations going on in the baking world at the moment. I’ll be sharing recipes, drool-worthy cakes and all things baking related, as well as some personal and travel inspired blogs. 

 

A bit about me

After finishing college, I opted for a gap year, taking a much needed break from education before heading to university. During my year, I spent five months working the winter ski season as a chalet host in the French Alps and loved every bit of it!

I then used my summer to travel Europe, interrailing with two friends and exploring some of the most beautiful cities in the world!

Post university, I became Cabin Crew for British Airways. (Random, I know!)

My mum had been crew in her twenties, so I was always aware of the seemingly glamorous lifestyle, but thought nothing of it as I applied. Next thing I knew, I’d got the job! After an intense training regime, I was in the air and serving cups of tea at 35000ft. I saw more of the world than I had ever done before and am so grateful for the opportunity. 

But crewing, for me, was not the lifestyle I wanted and a lonely way to travel. So, I quit, and went back to the mountains. 

I’ve just returned from France, having completed my second ski season, and have moved back home while I figure out my next move.

Earlier this year, I set up my own blog from scratch. It’s a place for sharing my travel experiences, baking knowledge, and lifestyle tips – so please check it out!

I’d love any advice or inspiration to help me understand this platform more and what you’d like to see. 

Thanks so much! 

Els x

Hi @theaustrianguy ! Thanks so much reading and commenting on my first post! :)

Hello elstheardentblog! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

have you ever been to Indonesia or Bali perhaps?

I went to Bali last August and LOVED it! I had such a wonderful trip and met some amazing people! I'm hoping to put together a few posts about my time in Bali on here, so hopefully you'll like them. I'd love to explore more of Indonesia though and I'm definitely keen to go back to Bali asap!

Yaaayy! You're so cool Ellie 🤗, I think you have tried the Bebek Bali and it's famous Sambal Matah too😉, would love to read that too. I suggest you to experience the "Saman of Gayo" in Central Aceh too, you'll love the coffee plantation and drinking wine coffee in the middle of plantation or enjoy snorkeling in the Iboih Beach, Weh Island. Ooh I am so excited to read other perspectives when coming to our country.

Aw thanks for the suggestions, they sound amazing, I can't wait to visit Bali again!! Yes, I bet it's really interesting to read what other's think about your country!

Hey @cicisaja I've just posted my first recipe post, I thought I'd let you know - hope you like it!

Welcome to Steem! Hope to read more from you soon!

Thanks for the welcome @bennierex Nice to meet someone else who works in the sky ✈️

Hello, Beautiful Baker, Ellie, you are fun. My gap year was in Hawaii. Love hiking. Love your smile. Love travel. Love your photos. Welcome to Steemit. Elephants are magical. Remember the first time you ever saw an elephant? As a kid, they were the biggest animals I've ever seen at the zoo. Love to ski. I'm joey from Oregon. Take care.

Hi @joeyarnoldvn Thanks for your comment, glad you like my post! I bet Hawaii was incredible, I really want to go there one day. I love elephants, they're such majestic creatures. Best wishes :)

You are very creative with the baking. You seem to love travel. Were you a flight attendant? Beautiful. I was living in Vietnam. I love travel. You love life. Great to meet you.

Thank you very much @joeyarnoldvn, yes baking is a huge passion of mine and yes I LOVE to travel. Yep, I used to be cabin crew for about a year. Hope Vietnam is treating you well. Good to meet you too

Awesome.

I posted my first baking post this morning, if you want to check it out @denoxblogger. A recipe for Chocolate Orange Flapjacks, they're super yummy!
Not yet, but I'm working on it :)

Okay sounds good :D Will check soon! You have facebook?

Welcome to this amazing community!!

Your desserts look delicioussss!! Keep the pics coming :)

Aww thanks @katrinalebar - I sure will! Plenty more yummy goodies to come! :)

Hey @katrinalebar Just wanted to let you know that I posted my first baking post earlier today, so if you're in the mood for more photos of yummy sweet treats, please take a look :)

i will definitely check it out, thanks!!

Hey, welcome to Steemit! You are off to a killer start! (I'm pretty sure the vast majority of us got under $1.00 for our first post. haha) You have the right idea - scrolling through different topics and leaving thoughtful comments on other peoples' posts is the absolute best way to find yourself a following, and rise through the ranks. It's sort of frustrating how hard it is to get people to do just that, and that's what brought me to your page! I always check out the pages of people who leave me great comments, and so do a lot of other people! So kudos!

Those photos of your baking look delish, and I am definitely looking forward to seeing what you have to share. 😊

Hi @offbeatbroad, Thank you so much for such a great comment! I'm glad to know that I'm going the right way about using this platform and I really appreciate you checking out what I'm about. Although I haven't been on here long, I'm really enjoying the community vibe and support that's shared on here. Thanks again, looking forward to sharing more and learning from others! :)

Thanks @slobberchops for the welcoming comment - Yes, I don't think I realised how much I had until I started writing. I'll try my best!

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Uh oh, good luck!! It's just another level of hotness!

Welcome to Steemit :-)

Thank you very much @cicbar - Good to be here!

Welcome to steemit ❤

Hi @ismailrafael Thanks for the welcome :)

Welcome to Steemit my sis @elstheardentblog.
Hope you always succes in here.
Greetings from me...!

Greetings to you @adivender Thanks for the welcome - I hope you have success here too :)

Welcome Ellie, some great photos and stories. I look forward to hearing more of them here on steemit.

Hey @eroche Thanks very much, I'm glad you think so. I posted my first baking post yesterday, if you fancy checking it out!

Hello .. welcome to stemit

Hey @amyalfatasya Good to be here!

First of all, welcome to steemit! I love all the travel pictures you shared and especially the mountain pictures. I love snowboarding and wish I got to do it more often...I've lived in a warm climate most of my life so my options locally are pretty limited when it comes to that hobby.

That 2nd to last picture looks like a really beautiful place. I'd love to live somewhere like that someday. My wife hates cold weather so that might be a hard sell...

Best of luck to you here and I look forward to seeing you share more about your adventures in life.

Hello @cryptokeepr Thank you for such a lovely comment! I'm glad you liked my first post and all the travel photos! The mountains are great, aren't they?! I hope you will get to make use of your snowboarding skills more often, but I'm gonna put it out there and say skiing is better! ;) Perhaps buy her a really warm pair of gloves and she might come round to it? Good luck too!

Is that a 100% rye wholemeal sourdough?
How big is your oven?
Would you like to be bbbff (bread baking best friends forever)?

Yep homemade rye sourdough. Haha I wish! I went on a bread making course last year and this is but a few loaves that were made that day! Haha yes please :)

I need to go on a baguette making course. I just can't get it right.

I need to go on
A baguette making course. I
Just can't get it right.

                 - breadcentric


I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

I found that the course I did gave me more confidence to really give bread a go. However, it's always going to be different when you try it in your own kitchen. Guess it's all just experimenting and practise. Mmm how amazing would it be to have freshly homemade baguette in the morning..?!

There are tricks to get something nice in the morning :)
Try this for instance: https://steemit.com/food/@breadcentric/kaisersemmeln-kaiser-rolls-2
In the morning you simply take them out of the fridge, bake them and give them some 30 minutes to cool enough to be good to eat :)

For the baguettes, I struggle with the timing and shaping. I think I only got them right twice so far. But I do have a dough recipe that love :)

Ooh yum - thanks very much for that! I need to get back into bread, it's been a while since I've made any.
Yes, they are trickier but they taste delicious! Good luck and let me know when you attempt them again!

Welcome to Steemit, Ellie! Your travels sound very exciting, so I'm looking forward to hearing more from you.

Thank you very much @springwind46 I've been very fortunate in my travel escapades! Plenty more to come :)

Welcome to Steemit! I can't wait to see all your food adventures!

Welcome to the steemit family xxx Looking forward to your baking creations and travel stories; Miss the Alpes so much. Since we moved to Cambodia I haven't been in the snow and on a snowboard. Maybe next winter.

Thanks very much @amy-goodrich. There's just something about being in the mountains, isn't there? Hopefully you get to feel the snow under your board soon! Well Cambodia sounds incredible too. How long have you been living there for? What are you up to out there, if you don't mind me asking?

Absolutely. Though I am not sure if I can still handle the cold hehe. We have been in Cambodia for 4 years now. We have a few online companies, my hubby is involved in a few crypto projects too and now we just started our own bakery with a friend here in Cambodia. We hope to turn it in a coffee shop and health cafe soon. Have a beautiful week and good luck with everything you do.

Yes, I guess after that much time in the heat, the cold would be a big shock to the system! Wow, that sounds amazing, congratulations and good luck with all your projects! Looking forward to seeing what's to come!

Hi Ellie, I heard you're TRAVELHOLIC, then have you ever been to MYANMAR(BURMA) or THAILAND?

Hi @shankhunsam That's correct, I love exploring other countries and cultures! Sadly my travels haven't taken me to much of Asia yet, but I'm hoping to visit both Myanmar and Thailand - they're definitely on my list!

If you get to Pyay (Prome) city of Myanmar, you can contact me anytime without hesitating and I will help you whatever i can afford.
Warmly Welcome to you.

Aww thank you very much, that's very kind of you!
