My name is Jackie and I am a California girl, living in Texas, exploring the world, and living life one glass (or bottle) of wine at a time.
My husband, Devin, is insanely optimistic about all things crypto, so I decided to jump in and experience the Steemit community for myself. My passions include travel, food & wine, and dogs--is there anything better in life? In the last 2 weeks, I started off in Texas and took off to Maui to finish a project. From there, I took the long journey to Dublin to meet up with some friends, then left for Båstad to spend some time with my husband, and we are off to Copenhagen tomorrow, then Stockholm. I love trying new foods and wines, meeting new people, and of course spending time with my favorite creatures off all, dogs.
Here are some photos of my journey...
Devin and I went to Maui to finish renovating a condo we bought there for a vacation rental. It came out great and this is us finally taking a break to go celebrate and enjoy the beauty of Hawaii
From Maui, Dev stopped back in CA to see his family and I went straight through to Dublin to meet up with some friends. We happened to be there for the 4th, so we had our own celebration for America's bday at the Guiness Storehouse.
Ship the first class upgrade :)

Dev and I met up in Copenhagen and hopped on the next train to beautiful Båstad, Sweden. He is a tennis coach at TCU and is recruiting tennis players at a tournament there. I just wanted to tag along...
Our charming accommodations
Morning coffee with a view at our hotel

Beautiful architecture
Lavendar grows wildly everywhere, mmmmmm, smells so good!

The marina has lots of delicious food made with fresh fish, yum!
Fish and boiled potato soup
Mussels and fries (always my personal fave!)
Salmon and avocado toast with pickled onions and a horseradish spread, so good!!!
What a wonderful time in beautiful Båstad. Off to Copenhagen now, will check in there!
Goodluck here

Thanks @blairwarner! At the bottom of the box where you "write your story", there is a line that says "Insert images by dragging & dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or by selecting them." I clicked on "selecting them" and it let me choose photos from my laptop I had saved onto. Best of luck!!!

hello @perfectlyfrank
you are very much welcome to steemit,a one of its kind in the history of social networks. i will like to share with you some lessons i learnt the hard way.
First,write on your area of strength, don't strugle more to get topics to write on, but when you write based on what you know/do well at, that becomes your brand and fellow steemians will know what to expect from you on every post.
don't beg for followers.
When people follow you on a quip pro quo basis, that's the foundation of not getting upvotes and comments because many of your followers didn't do so because they wanted what you have to offer but rather they are just there as numbers. #don't go for numbers, but value.
When i joined, after my intro post. i went low kay and started engaging with people on their posts and comments and like that,i was getting people that truly liked me for me. i must note that at some post as a newbie, i outrightly asked people to follow me but that was before i learned that it was one of the unwritten rule of steemit;don't beg for followers.
Again,paticipate in contests, it will conect you to people and probably, earn you some steem/steem dollar. and always try to leave a good comment on people's posts. this dose wonders. check out this contest[clickhere]https://steemit.com/fiftywords/@literature-trail/50-word-story-contest-week-19-join-for-a-chance-to-win-1000-trail-and-40-sbd
Finally, learn to engage. Get the esteem app on your phone so that after writing and posting with your pc,you can now use your phone and respond to replys on the go. This will help you build your followers.>/h4>
I hope that this piece will be of grate help to you as it has been for me[though i learnt the hard way]. Follow them and thank me later. : )
once more, you are welcome.
