How I found out about Steemit - By @tocho2

I usually search in the web for a productive thing to do from home, I spend a least 12 hours on the computer (making engineering drawings and some technical documents too) on average when there is no job away from home, and now in world quarantine... there were not many options. Something reminded me that I has a Steemit account (never used).

I remember that more than year ago, a person on facebook told me something about Steemit and recommended me to enter it, but he did'n explain me what this consisted of. I also remember that on certain occasions when I was looking for some info about blockchain and cryptocurrency, I found some posts from Steemit. Anyway, I opened my account on January 2019 but I did nothing with it, I left it for later because I did'n know how this worked, I had no one to ask, at least a chat on the platform to ask questions and interact on real time (I left it like that, at that time).

Due to the world quarantine, with a lot of free time at home and very few work to do, I dared to visit my Steemit account and found a post (I don't remember who) that in few words explained something like writing on your blog and receiving rewards in Steem, that was enough to write my first post in spanish (my native language) on April 12, 2020 (https://steemit.com/teletrabajo/@tocho2/ventajas-del-teletrabajo-en-tiempos-de-pandemia).

Whit this post I only received one vote, that made me think that: 1) there are a few curator in Spanish; and 2) the time (instant, hour) I made the post was not favorable.

I do not give up, I currently post in English to practice the language, I want to start publishing in French (my second language) and in the future I would like to be an official curator of post in Spanish, I don't know how to do it. I think, the Spanish-speaking community it's very large and I want to give my support here.

I learned few things about this 6 years ago and I had some little experiences acquiring some cryptocurrencies (a few, just to try), I did't try it any more.

Nowadays I am interested and I take it with patience while I investigate and learn it at the same time.

Before inviting some friends I wanted to see how I am doing here, I already have some friends to invite soon.

To close, I formally introduce myself (I never did before), I'm a civil engineer and also I'm college professor in Venezuela.

Every day in Steemit is a new experience for me..!
