Future Captain and hobby photographer- here is my story

Hello Steemit,

It took me some time to join the Steemit community, but I can finally proudly say, that I am part of Steemit and I chose Steemit because the community is very positive and extremely helpful, so I needed to be part of this. So, let me introduce myself to you and what I will be posting and sharing with you.

Thanks, to a friend @redtravels for showing Steemit to me.

Let us start from the very beginning…

Ever since I have been a child, the coast always intrigued me and so for hours I stared at it while in the backseat of the car on the way to my grandmother. I was mesmerized by the ships which disappear on the horizon and wander off into blue sea or even just seeing them at anchor close by the harbour and since then I knew this is my path to take. I believe we all feel drawn to the see or at least feel euphoric when we are close to sea. Until this very day, I have not met anyone who does not feel some sort of emotion when he/she gets close to it. Life has brought me to Finland, a beautiful place I must say. I met friends who owned a tallship or rather their fathers. This is where it all began just by hanging out and working on this ship. I understood in that very moment, that I must take this further and study “Maritime management” and you might call it destiny or not, but I applied and got accepted. The degree itself is known as master mariner in order to become a captain one day but my journey has just begun, and I know I have a long road ahead of me knowing the best is yet to come.

I want to explore the real sea, not the beach and inshore waters but the deep blue which has mesmerized me ever since I have taken the first ride towards my grandmother’s house and I shall cherish that moment forever because I am grateful for where I am today. I will be frequently posting a lot of blog posts and want to share with you my journey from all the places I have been and tell you my experience and of course a lot of pictures.

This is just my introduction post, but many will follow with pictures of my journey. I hope you take part of my Steemit journey and feel free to comment on it.

Thank you guys😊
