Introducing myself, Scintilla a spark of hope for things yet to come

Hi Steemian's, my name is Laura and i am very excited to be part of whatever this is!
Just a quick background on myself, i have worked in the education system for many years both in primary (junior) and secondary schools before turning my focus to E.S.L (English as a second language) to adult migrants and also as an Italian teacher. Since meeting my partner and giving birth to two beautiful children i have since left the teaching profession, only to tutor Italian to secondary school children in my spare time.
My partner has a background in business and we are now both actively learning all we can on the changing environment of global economics, in particular, everything crypto and blockchain technology!! !

We have enjoyed reading your stories on Steemit so far and look forward to learning more every day as we get deeper into our journey and grow. There are some truly inspiring stories we have read so far and this just proves the power of how strong social media can be.
We live in Melbourne,Australia, which we enjoy immensely but we also travel extensively and enjoy meeting people from all kinds of diverse and interesting backgrounds. Our children also love to travel with us when school holidays arrive!
