An introduction to me
Hello, my name is Tali which is short for Taliesin (gold star to the first person who can tell me the origin of my name) and I consider myself a worldly nomad. I am 37 years of age and currently residing in a small Peruvian village called Lobitos. My journey starts with me being born in the Seychelles to a Scottish farther and French Mother. If you think this is complicated... well after the Seychelles I lived in the following: Hong Kong, Scotland, France, Mauritius, Wales, England, Yemen, Cape Verde, now Peru and who knows next?
(I now have confirmation that I need to shave or at least trim)
I am not even going to add the places visited, but let me just tell you that traveling is in my blood. So much so I have had the privilege of working on developing tourism in protected areas and in countries for several United Nations bodies. I have seen, smelt, touched and experienced so much that I wish to share this with my fellow Steemians.
(This was me on the Congo-Central Africa Republic border. Trust me this is isolated)
I must tell all that my passions in life are centred around creativity and getting things done. There seems to be a lot of chatter, but few concrete actions now days. This basically comes down to surfing as much as possible, cooking, baking (yes I can bake), working on small community projects, keeping in touch with current events, researching in order to build a picture of the future and general enjoying life.

To everyone, I would gladly accept your guidance, knowledge, experience and upvotes.
Have a spiffing New Year everyone!
ps. I would like to thank Gregory Mannarino of @marketreport for putting me onto steemit.
Welcome to Steemit!
@trogdor thank you for the welcome. I see you havent posted in a while. If I may ask, any reason why?
Hi, to be honest, i just really dont have the time these days, and all the posts I'm interested in writing would take a decent chunk of time. So now I have pretty much relegated myself to trying to filter through the spam and welcome a few new members each day. It's the only way i cam actually use up my voting power with the 10 minutes or so that I have. Cheers
Well thank your upvotes on my post and it is much appreciated. I think I am not the only one would want to see you post more articles again. All the best for 2018.
Hi Tali! I see nobody has tried to guess the origins of your name. Care to share to story behind Taliesin? I'm interested to know what it means (:
Hello @ptrkshv yes it is quite unique of a name and has Welsh origins. Good recommendation to write about it and I have added it to my subject list.
Awesome! Looking forward to reading more about it (:
