Introducing Myself ... A Musician, Dancer, Foodie and Travel Enthusiast

Hey Steemians!

My sister @coruscate has been telling me about Steemit for months and I finally took the plunge and joined! I am so excited to come out of my comfort zone and share my passions with you.

So... A Little Bit About Me

I grew up all over the United States with my parents who immigrated from Canada with my four brothers and sister. Thank God for my sister who made me sane of the years (she made me say this...) Anyway, back to the story. Currently I live in Washington state with my awesome boyfriend (he made me say this...) Yes, they are in the room with me right now!

Here's a few things you might see me post about...

Music

I love how music takes you away from daily routine where you can imagine anything to be possible. Violin was the first love of my life. I started taking classes when I was 5 years old and was in an orchestra for 8 years. I have trained with more classic music but recently have taken up modern and fiddle music. I also sing and play the piano and ukulele where I like to write original music in addition to playing fun covers.

Travel

Growing up, I traveled all over the country which exposed me to different places and cultures. This seeded my love of travel. I love exploring in my free time and one of the perks of working in the tourism industry is the discounted trips. In fact, next month I will be traveling to New York to be in the live audience at the Late Show with Stephen Colbert! I live in such a beautiful area of the world but traveling opens me up to new perspectives and adventures.

Food

I am a foodie at heart and one of my favorite past times is checking out new restaurants and trying new dishes. On this blog I can share some recipes I have come up with and some of my restaurant experiences. My favorite dishes include Sushi, Thai food, and anything with cheese.

Dance

When I'm dancing I am in my happiest state of mind. I have been dancing since I was 3 and even though I do not dance as much as I would like to now a days, it is still one of my greatest passions. Growing up I took ballet, jazz, hip hop, and lyrical classes. These were some of my favorite childhood memories.

Yeah. Haha. Great. I play guitar, piano. Violin seems a little tough but maybe I'll try that someday. Love your blond hair. Is that what people are called here, Washingtonians? Sounds funny but must be what we are. Ha ha. Dancing is one of the best things ever to do besides maybe eating. Ha ha. Have a good day.

Haha I agree eating is definitely the best things to do 😜

Welcome to steemit!

Thank you so much!

Nice to see you found your way to Steemit! So, welcome aboard and enjoy your stay! Already waiting for your next story!

And for your information, we made a dedicated notification app, called Steemify, we as @blockbrothers build this app. Just download it for free and never miss out on any notification!

Download Steemify Here:

And while you're on it, me and my fellow blockbrothers are also a witness as @blockbrothers. If you want to support us we would appreciate your vote here.

Thank you!

This leech with the requests already.. shit man let the girl settle in first.
Fucken witnesses. Like you ain't getting paid already man.

You do great work though don't get me wrong.
But I see this as no different to a low rank begging for a follow.

We can only do this with support of the community. Don’t want anyone to feel offended. No need to curse. Appreciate you like what we do. Have a great day!

NO need to curse?

Who determines where there is a need?

You?
Fuck off !!

I use words as I see fit.

This does not at all mean that I have animosity towards you personally. It simply means that the situation induced emotion and passion where the utilization of profanity was an instinctive and fitting action.

You DO exist as a valuable element here. However an opinion need not align with what you in your mind believe yourself to be acceptable or non-acceptable treatment towards an individual in your position.

Welcome to Steemit! Just seen your sis promote ya 😎! You got this 💪🏼🙌🏼💯

Thanks for the vote of confidence! I'm really excited :)

I'm here to wish you loads of luck! Your intro post is promising!

Thank you so much @soyrosa!

Boy am I jealous of those discounted travel adventures. I hope you have a blast in NYC - especially at that Colbert taping!! Stay warm when you're there - the city is such a wind tunnel, and the groundhog tells me we're going to have six more weeks of winter ;)

Hi Mary!! Welcome to Steemit. I hope it is good for you. Invite some friends and build the community

Thank! I feel like Steemit is the best kept secret on the internet

Ahoy!

Great that you made it!

  • From what I gather, you could really be helping out your Sis (writing original music) since you sound like you have a real handle on it and she seems to be afraid of doing it lol.

  • Also, I'd be sure to check out OpenMic if you don't already know about it. Best place for musicians on Steemit IMO...

JB

Thank you Jabird!
My sis has told be about OpenMic and I can't wait to try it out! When it comes to song writing for me it has been great outlet to deal with pain love and everything in between! Can't wait to help @curoscate write original music too!

That a girl.

I look forward to seeing your entry as well.

Welcome! Have you visit Malaysia? You'll be love the food and the people :D
