Hello Steemit community! (Or are we calling ourselves steemers?) My name's Heidi, I'm a happy person who loves to travel, cook, write, laugh, and photograph. I'm 27 with perpetual plans to fill up my passport with stamps. I'm relatively new to the cryptocurrency world but I was lucky to buy Ether in the early days, needless to say that sparked my interest and made me realize the potential here! Anything that allows me to travel while only needing wifi access to make some money is what I call an IDEAL situation.
After trying out that whole "college experience" and swapping majors for a whopping 5 years, I did come away with what I consider to be a quality education in writing among other things. I never graduated and I'm totally ok with that. So I decided to learn how to code via SEU (Self-Educated University) and I built my own website that I now use for blogging and sharing recipes and all that good stuff.
These past 2 years I've really emersed myself in the world of eating healthy and an overall healthy lifestyle. My dad's side of the family is Greek, that means I literally have over 20 cousins. I'm also incredibly lucky to have been raised in a household filled with good stories, loud laughs and a busy kitchen that was always smelling like garlic, lemon and the leg of lamb roasting on the grill outside. With a love of cooking thoroughly instilled in me and a newfound passion for eating healthy I've found myself consumed with finding new ways to make healthy food taste delicious.
I've also recently had a huge change in my life and now I love to travel. I've now been to countries that I never thought I would visit. I'm being emersed in so many different cultures, making friends that span the globe and picking up the culinary traditions along the way. I'm so happy to have a platform that lets me share my experiences with you!
My goal here is to give you all great recipes, healthy tips and funny travel stories. Ultimately I want to share my experiences and inspire you all to go out and find your passion and discover something new!
Its so awesome what you did /do

Welcome and don't worry about not finishing college (not that you seem worried), as someone who has a Law Degree I can tell you that out in the real world a degree doesn't help as much as having skills and life experiences. If you don't have any debt, even better. That enables you to pursue your goals without having to be anchored to a cubicle. Good on you!

I really want to visit India, it's on the top of my list. I'm planning on going sometime next year. When would be the best time to head out there?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

If you want to travel to Kashmir or the Himalaya then June-Sept is a good time. For South-India you may consider Oct-Feb. For North India Oct-Nov and Feb-March is ideal! For the North-Eastern part of India you can visit Jan-April as the rains would've stopped by then. I travel quite a bit myself and will be posting about some of my experiences soon.

Ahaaa... so that is how you get to just travel and do nothing. You were one of the lucky few who were early 'investors'. Well, I wish i was, although i realize it's a ponzi with no future...

I know, don't you just hate it when someone can see the potential of a new platform, utilize it and invest wisely and reap the benefits? Man, why would anyone want to do that...
As for the "do nothing" notion, I'm going to have to harshly disagree with that one bud. ;)
Have a great day! Hopefully one day you'll lose that pessimism.

hey thanks @kingjohal, you can follow people- there's a blue follow botton on the persons profile page. But I'm not sure if you actually get notified when they post... maybe they just show up more on the "recommended posts" section.
Thanks for the love, I really appreciate it :)

Hi Heidi probably really way to late to comment here, but I feel inspired and I love the way you talk about changing your mind at University (College). I did the whole business thing the first time - back in 80's and then ended up studying medieval history, ancient civilizations and art. Never did finish a degree either. I wish I had had the courage to hit the road like you. I wanted to and even remember checking out flights and backpacks. But... made a big mistake and let others influence me. I am inspired and thrilled by your adventures so far. Here I am a grandma now and still thinking about just going for a lot of my undone dreams! Do it if you are young (or old) - cause trust me it is true what they say - you never regret the things you did do - only the things you didn't do! Wow I gotta write another post!
