Hello Steemit, I am a 19-year-old student living in Denmark!
Hey there! As many others who are new to Steemit, I am very excited to be a part of this platform so early on. This is my first post so please bear with me...
A little bit about myself: My name is Laurentiu, but you can call me Lawrence.
I am 19 years old and was born in Bucharest, Romania. In 2010 I moved to the UK with my mother, and have lived there until summer of 2015.
This is where the fun begins!
Summer of 2015 I decided to leave UK and move to Denmark in order to pursue an International Diploma Baccalaureate.
This was the first time in my life where I was truly alone, in a country where I had no relatives, no friends (yet) and no knowledge of the real world.
Day to day things were a struggle, such as learning how to cook for myself (I ate a lot of questionable "food") and how to do laundry (I still miss my white trousers).
However it was here, in Denmark where I was taught valuable life lessons, while undergoing this International Diploma programme.
Being in such a globalised, mixed environment, where people have come together from all parts of the world to complete the same diploma is truly inspiring and amazing.
I shortly moved away from my dorm, and I now live with two roommates in an apartment, in the centre of our little town.
I have but one year left to complete this diploma and move on with my life, but I will never forget the life lessons I was taught during my stay.
To get to the technical bits now, the courses I am taking in this Diploma are: Economics (HL), Psychology (HL), English A (HL), Mathematics (SL**), Biology (SL) and Danish B (SL).
(HL= Higher Level)
(SL= Standard Level)
As many people on Steemit, I am also very excited about blockchain technology, cryptocurrency and, of course Bitcoin!
I recently opened a few wallets and started on my portfolio of altcoins, which I still do not fully understand, but I hope to do so in the future!
I am quite new to this scene, but I am here to stay and will continue following, to see where this path might lead us.
Much Love,
Lawrence

I live in Denmark myself and it makes me glad to see other people from Denmark joining Steemit. Bucharest is by the way a great place as well, I went here two years ago and loved it!
