Greetings Steemit Family!

I can't believe we're already halfway through July!

Time flies when you're moving out of your place and preparing for an intercontinental Steem Tour! I have so much yet to do to prepare for my trip! Only 53 days until I set out into the unknown.

The Steem Peer to Peer Tour!

So far I haven't nailed down the exact dates, or destinations, but it looks like the first stop will be Greece in mid-September, where I will meet with @onceuponatime, and other members of the Greek Community in Loutraki, which I hear is "The Crypto Friendliest Place On Earth." :) Well, I'm eager to find out what that's all about!

After Greece, of course, I am planning on arriving in Lisbon for Steemfest! I'm planning to arrive on October 31st, and I've already booked my accommodations. I hope to see many of you there!

But, before or after SteemFest, from Greece to Portugal, and anywhere in between, I am planning to roam across Europe with my video camera and a willingness to share YOUR stories, perspectives, and ideas with the world.

Let me know if you would like to host, or meet a traveling Steemian in your city, and I will do my best to share your Steemit story with the world! I think we're going to call this the #SteemP2PTour. Hit me up in the comments here or on https://steemit.chat user @lovejoy, if you'd like to connect with me.

While I'm on the subject of Steemfest....

I really want to encourage you to attend! You may have your doubts that it is feasible for you to make it there for any variety of reasons. However, there is a huge and generous community of Steemians here that are working to make the event accessible to as many people as possible. You may find, that if you have the will to make the journey, the universe will conspire to help you realize your goal!

If you follow the hashtag #steemfest, you will see there are many generous members of the community who are offering up varying degrees of support to help you join us at SteemFest! So keep your eyes out. Where there's a will, there's a way!


What else?

Well, if you read this far, I'll let you in on a little open secret... Today is my birthday! ;)

So, I'm off for a dip in the lake!

I'll make a video update soon. Maybe I'll record one from the beach if inspiration strikes. :) I'm going to come out from behind the camera and give y'all a proper hello.

Until then!
Blessings,
@lovejoy

Best of all for your birthday and travels! Namaste :)

Thanks so much! Pranams ~ b

Yes! That sounds like it is going to be a great journey. Do you plan on only spending funds that you earn through your Steemit posts? Also, if you end up going to northern Italy, Veneto area, I have some friends that would definitely host you.

Thanks for the suggestion of your friends Italy. Have you invited them to Steemit yet? ;) I'm looking forward to the journey... I have a lot to figure out yet. Yes, I will need to fund at least some part of the trip with STEEM, and various other means. But I aim to travel light, and cheaply; while creating more value for the community than I must spend. ;)

Happy Birthday @lovejoy!

Thank you so much! I survived... ;)

Happy birthday @lovejoy! It was great meeting you at the Steemit meet up. Hopefully I can make it to your party in a couple weeks. Lets hope Billy Joel doen't play all night. As for the Eurotrip...maybe connect with @eroche there is a really solid Steemit following out of Dublin, Ireland.
Steem on!!!

Great to meet you as well! I would absolutely love to visit Ireland, thanks for the suggestion. :) More details on that Steemit shindig forthcoming!

@lovejoy the first photo is just great, lie postcard :) checking #steemfest tag now!
Kindly please check my new story about the market Koszyki (polish- shopping basket) in Warsaw. A modern, fashionable and glamorous hot place to meet, chat and eat :)

I've wrote you in steem.chat. Happy birthday and hopefully meet you later this year! :)

Thanks, yes that would be great. I replied to you there. Cheers!

I am really hoping I can make it to SteemFest. Will surely meet you all there! :D

Greetings from India! ^_^

Thanks, and I hope to see you there! I would love to visit India as well, but when I finally make it to India, I'll have to stay for months and months. I have to set aside a whole trip for that. Cheers. :)
