Introduce myself

Hi, I am new here and like to introduce myself.
My name is Nel Vuyk. I live in South Africa and run a recycling business.
I like to read and I have many interests. I have seen quite a few interesting people already that I will follow. I love my garden, I love my dogs, I love all kinds of music, I run a recycling business in a country where ‘throwing away’ is normal, I like reading up on developments in recycling in other parts of the world, I am very concerned about plastic in the oceans and did a speech about the great Pacific Garbage Patch years ago but not many people believed that it could be that bad, I make artwork out of recycled materials, I love nature and wildlife, I like reading about self development and how to improve myself, I am interested in the quantum sciences, I may not always be able to comprehend everything but it is highly interesting. I love watching movies - sci-fi – based on true stories – romantic – action. I like Facebook but it is too limited.
I am sure that in the beginning I will make many mistakes and I will try very hard to learn from that.
I appreciate all the advice that I will hopefully get.
When someone mentioned Steemit to me and said I may even be able to make money I thought: ‘Why not. If I don’t try I will never know if I could, would etc’
