Achievement 1 : Verification Through Introduction by @natblida

Hi Steemians!

I am Razel Sadaya from Cebu, Philippines and I am 34 years old. My working experience is in software development. Although I am working in tech, I don’t really have much experience in cryptocurrency because I was very hesitant when I first heard of it few years back. But now, I am actually amazed at what blockchain can offer in the future. Never thought that a social platform like Steem is possible with blockchain.

I am married and a mother of one cute little daughter. My family of 3 just will be making a big move at the end of the year. Currently, we are in the Philippines but at the end of the year, we will be moving to Canada. And I think I will be posting a lot about our journey in Canada here. I will be going to school again in Canada and hopefully settle down there after a few years. I love watching movies & series on Netflix. Maybe some of you realized that my username “natlblida”, which translates to “nightblood”, is taken from the recent series The 100 which I recently just finished (waiting for Season 7 on October). In the series, it’s just black-blooded humans, but to me it means insomiac, like I have a “night blood” because I’m a night owl ( though I’m working on sleeping better.. LOL)

I learned about Steem through a TED talk video in youtube. And how I got there is because I got interested investing on play to earn NFT-based crypto games. So coming here, my main intention was, like everyone else, to earn crypto coins! But as I was browsing, I realized I can do more than just earning crypto here. I really like the fact that I can write blog-post-like content in Steem. With this, I am hoping to improve my writing skills here through blog posting about our travel experiences, family, parenting, crypto (once I learn more about it) and anything under the sun.

I am very excited on my journey here on Steem!

Thank you for reading this! Hope you all had a great weekend!

Cheers!
