My name is Michael David.

I live life, travel and blog.

I'd like to introduce myself. Please introduce yourself after you read.

I am a real person, you can find pieces of my digital footprint here:

I'm an entrepreneur, traveler, introvert, cook, occasional gardener and single dad!

I've done a ton of things so far in life and intend on doing so many more, so as an introduction, I thought it would be nice to catch you all up a little.

Anyway, here is a little about who I am and the life I've lived so far:

I grew up in a very small town in Indiana. My graduating class was 42 (super small i guess). Ironically, 42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything for those of you that have seen the real Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Displeased with life as it were, I left on a magical journey of life which has looped back around to me living back in Indiana (Not for much longer.). I met elves and fairies, I met kings and queens and I got to slay mighty dragons with naught but a pen....

Ok, that may be a little off so lets see if I can bring this story back to the way it really happened.

I actually left as a hippie I guess, traveling the country with a backpack and an imagination. During the early years of my travels I did not allow photos of myself. I was however able to dig up one from just after my first daughter was born.

Dirty freakin hippie!! WTF! Well, regardless of how I looked (or smelled perhaps lol) back then, I sure had a lot of fun!

I made and learned to make an arsenal of various crafts and things to sell as a means of survival along the way. I've learned how to cook some great food. I've made a ton of mistakes, learned from most of them and intend on making many more.

I've squatted in almost every state in the USA and lived (had houses) in many as well. I've also traveled to several countries which I'll share at a later time.

I've seen to many concerts to recall them all and lived in most national forests in the country as well.

I've had a few memorable girlfriends:

Had a few beautiful children:

Built and dismantled several businesses:

I've studied a plethora of various skills and things that i intend to share.

One way or another I landed here, with all of you lovely folks on Steemit.

Well, that is an extremely watered down and heavily shortened version of who I am. I'll be getting to all the fun stuff in future blog posts.

My goal here on Steemit is to share as many of my experiences and adventures as I can, as well as create many more to share as well.

I've been into crypto-currencies now for a little while so seeing this type of social platform definitely peeked my interest.

I'll be sharing my adventures, travels, my interesting cooking experiences and recipes, things I'm learning or have learned and of course what I can muster about cryptocurrency.

Oh yea, I almost forgot... For those of you that say, "Never trust a guy with 2 first names.", I don't have 2 first names. Only one, Michael. So trust away!

Thanks for reading!
If you'd like to, introduce yourself.

Farewell for now
Michael David

You too @piercetheveil. Thanks again!

Welcome to Steemit! Very nice introduction with a great verification picture. Well done! If you could add a reference back to your Steemit blog from the other sites it would make it even better.

Please read my welcome message for some quick tips and information about the Minnow Support Project! SteemOn! :)

Thanks. Great idea! I have one from my FB, I'll add one for the others.

Welcome to steemit! Love the hair. Today is my first day as well. Followed you. I use to have longer hair myself :)

Thanks @jtl, I'll follow. Good luck on here.

Nice to meet you Michael. I followed you. I'm interested in cryptocurrency too! I look forward to your future posts! I'd love to read about the experiences with your old businesses.

Thanks @legosnjoysticks, that's a great name by the way.

Thank you!

Thanks!

You bet!

Very nice intro post. Nice to have you here.

Thanks @duckmast3r!

Welcome to this awesome community! Awesome adventures so far! Haha, Nice one about the 2 first names. I've heard that too. I wonder how that started? I too am a gardener and love of music. Onward and upward!

Thanks @foodisfree. Great name by the way, it should be for all. I really believe that of all things money should not play a role in whether a person eats or eats healthy. Thanks for the support. I followed you.

All of us deserve access to healthy food, clean water and shelter. If we utilize open source solutions to make those basic standards for all, imagine the creative potential that would be unlocked when people don't have to worry about surviving. Great to connect!

I have had precisely this same thought! Some of the brightest minds in our world are wrapped up in the quest to follow a dollar or chase food instead of any of the multitude of amazing things that they could be doing if this was not taking all of their focus. Wonderful to have met you!

Great to connect!

likewise!

welcome to Steemit, very good intro my friend and fellow Hoosier.

Thanks @minigrowl! Born and bred. Out of here soon though.
