Introducing Steffi to STEEM!

in #introduceyourself10 years ago (edited)

Hey Steemit! I am Steffi from Germany currently living and loving life somewhere between everywhere in the UK.

I think the concept of Steem is brilliant and I would love to share my stories with you guys.
There is so much going on and I would like to bring at least a little something to this community.

Just a little about myself
I come from a small village in the east of Germany and moved to London when I was 19 years old. Quite a change, but needed. I felt the need to see more things in the world and explore different places out of my comfort zone.
The only supermarket and petrol station we had in my village just wasn't enough!
My english has always been bad to not existing and when I told my english teacher that I would want to move to London one day, she just smiled and said good luck. So coming to London without being able to actually speak the language was hard but so worth it!
Screw you lousy teacher.. who hasn't been able to teach me anything!
I live here since 5 years , have traveled the world and speak fluent english! Thanks for nothing!

My life has been a rollercoaster and I really hope it's gonna stay interesting!

Thats what life is all about. Downs are just as important as up's!
I've recently just recovered from an eating disorder.
I was addicted to food and eating was all I did for most days.
I want to share stories and offer help on how I came over bulimia and finally after 8 year beat my inner voices.
Of course there is more then just bulimia I wanna talk about.
I will give reviews on places I visit, fashion, art, photography,parties and basically most things I do and I am passionate about.

Here's a portrait of myself with a giraffe down my neck drawn by my best friend Antonio. You can check out his artwork here http://www.antoniolorente.com

you can find me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/primaballorina/

Last but not least. A huge thank you to @allasyummyfood for introducing me to STEEM

I can't wait to read everything about your cakes and even be at your next dinner party XX

But thats it for now! Stay tuned for more. I hope you are as excited as I am to be here!

Lots of Love, Steffi xx

Hi Steffi, Welcome to Steemit. I'm sure you'll fit right in here :)
Your english is very good by the way, It must have been very surreal moving to a country before properly understanding the language.

Aw thank you so much! I really appreciate it.
Indeed, it's been a hard first year, but when you go to a different country you have to learn.
A great journey and challenge.

Welcome Steffi! Great post thank you for sharing with us :)) If you could just take a picture of steemit like with your picture and date :)) xx

Yes I will.. and thank you again! all help growing in this community appreciated xx

Giraffe must also be in picture to be sure it's really you...you can keep your clothes on though :) Welcome to steemit!

This friend of your, Antonio, is seriously talented. I wish I could produce something like that. I'm limited to stick men...and even they look awful.

Haha. I didn't take my clothes off for the picture.. he just drew it with knowing how my face looks.. so the naked body isn't mine ;)
Btw Antonio does stickmen too. hehe he tattooed them on my arm. :)

Hello Steffi! Welcome to Steemit! You friend Allas is great!

Welcome!! So good to have you here and excited to see what you bring to the community.

Namaste

Welcome. I love Germany I have visited 2 times. I had my first white Christmas and made snow angels in the front yard. I remember that yummy Christmas hot wine at the markets. I was in Cologne or I like to call it Köln. I also went to watch the Kö​ln Sharks now that was a wicked experience. Anyway, i hope you enjoy steemit....btw Followed..hit me back if you like .. @cryptoiskey :)
