Welcoming new Steemian's: My Weekly Post

I'm going to have to repeat what I said in my last post,about introducing new Steemian's that I decided to follow, because it's exactly how I continue to see Steemit, as this amazing platform that has created a huge global community. Bringing together so many different people from all over the world, from all different walks of life. It is a true representative of the great diversity we have on this great planet.

The four people that I have picked, are people that I wish to follow and who I think will add to the great diversity on here already. One of them is a friend of mine, while the other 3 are people I found whilst browsing #introduceyourself.

Just before starting to write this post, I read a great post that I think will be super helpful to anyone starting out.

As well as this great article by @article61, @hopehuggs wrote one this week, about how to write an epic intro post.

So if you are new to steemit check them out. Also worth a mention is @blacksheepblog and this post, which is due an update soon.

So here are the five new steemians I've resteemed and am now following. As I've said before, check them out, and even better get out there and welcome some other new people coming aboard this great platform and be proactive in helping it grow.

Hello / Hola Steemians! (Español abajo)

I'm Sophie, I am a working mum of two lovely children (11 and 6). I returned to my hometown in south Spain 9 years ago and currently live in a tiny solar powered house. I like doing and teaching stuff like this! (as well as a MULTITUDE of other things.. see further down!) This picture is of my elderberry syrup which i make every year to supply to my local community of families who like to keep their immune systems strong and keep viruses in check.

I have been practicing Clinical Herbalism for over 10 years.

Hi Steemit!!!!!

Allow me to introduce myself I am Van
I am a travelling tattoo artist I travel all over the world with my family.
I would love to take you along on our journey and show you a little of "the good" "the bad" and "the ugly" of life as a traveling artist and a man living in a small space with 3 women....

We don't have a house and spend a large portion of the year traveling around Australia. A trip that started January 2016 and is still going. For work I do also travel to other continents frequently and that allows me to bit by bit discover this beautiful planet and the people that live on it.

My name is Dominic Fowler. I live in Los Angeles. I was born and raised in San Diego, California. I am a music lover-all music. My favorite bands, if I were forced to pick just a couple, would be Tool, Wu-Tang, FleetwoodMac, Silversun Pickups, X-Clan, Public Enemy, Mumfordandsons, CampLo, E-40, early Ice Cube, early Ice-T, early Metallica, Led Zepplin, Black Sabbath, Helmet and selected joints from the Cranberries. Yes I said it-the Cranberries.

For the entirety of my life I have been a lover of the word. Written, spoken, sang, rhymed-I love words.

@annparenting

Hi all. I hope you are having a wonderful day. I sure am. I’m just thinking about all the things that I can write about. Let me just start off by saying THANK YOU!!! Thank you for taking the time out to stop by and read my first post. I know there are a ton of other accounts out there, but you choose to read mine for the moment. I am truly grateful.

Annparenting is going to be about things that I do with my son. I have a son that has autism and I would love to share the activities that we do. It can range from his hobbies, cooking, academics and fun times.

Be active and be part of the change you want to see.
