Hi everyone, 

@samryan here, I’m the alter ego of Australian crime writer and travel blogger Liam Saville. 

Well, truth be told, Sam Ryan is actually a fictional character from a couple of my books but every now and then he breaks loose and tries to take over. 

When I’m not writing about crime, I like nothing more than travelling. My family and I travel a lot, and we generally pack in several international trips and a good half dozen or so short breaks within Australia each year. I’ve come to Steemit to write about and share my travel adventures, but chances are that the crime writer in me will make an appearance too. 

I look forward to sharing my adventures here on Steemit. If you are so inclined, you can find me on Instagram @occasionaltourist, and my books can be found at https://www.amazon.com/default/e/B009SLCQKO

Hello samryan! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
