Tell your Story Contest - Introducing Myself
Hello Superheroes! My name is Edgardo, I'm from Venezuela, and this is my story.
Read it carefully. This might be your last Chance!
-My Life Before Steemit-
My life before Steemit has been a total rollercoaster but I'm grateful because I'm alive and kicking, Thank you God for that.
I am a former travel agent which I loved because it allowed me to know the world even though I wasn't the one who was traveling. Helping people out to arrange their trips, Vacation, Honeymoon was really satisfactory; Mostly when they came back from their trip because they brought me really nice souvenirs from other countries and most important, they returned with a happy face for having a great Trip, and that's what I liked the most, to make them happy and make them feel their money was worth.
I also am a former English Teacher. Actually I teach on my free time due I work mostly Online. Teaching is really my passion, there are no ways or words to describe how nice and great feels to know that someone is learning from you, and more when you know your methods are working. Teaching is an art not everyone are prepared for. Sadly, Education is underrated in my Country - as everything- and I have to invest most of my time working online because 12$ a month is not enough for a decent living.
How was I introduced to steemit? Who introduced me here?
As we all know. God or the divine power that gives us faith and keep us alive acted once again in a mysterious way. I was Chatting with a friend on Facebook his name is Israel, He was talking to me about this social media where you can get paid just for posting things you like or commenting, and I was Skeptical about it -He doesn't speak English and believe it or not, until this date, my friend haven't signed up- Anyways, I signed in last June and the time passed. A month later, Checking some stuff on my e-mail, I found out that Steemit accepted my request, Crazy thing I noticed a month after about the confirmation, and here I am, Happy for finding what I call "The holy Grail of Social Media.
What's my channel topic?
Among my defects, the one that is always present is being too human. My topics are really open and diverse. I like reading and love learning everyday about basically ANYTHING! so the topics on my Channel are not yet defined. If you Check my Channel -I invite each and every single one of you to check it- you'll see articles about different topics. My main one I would say is Teaching.
My hobbies and interests?
I love Reading, Listening to music, watching T.V Shows (Game of thrones I love you) and right now I'm really interested and getting into the crypto world. What I do really love, too, is learning new languages and technollogy.
My best and worst experiences here?
I am really grateful to know this community. Naming a hard experience can be quite difficult because all I've seen so far is pure love. The only thing that bothers me yet I know it's normal is how difficult can be to promote yourself in here, too much people, a lot of great posts, but unseen though.
My best experience was when @cervantes, a user who is helping out all the Spanish community -like @minnowsupport- voted one of my posts. it was really awesome to see that someone took the decency of reading my article, and I was rewarded as well which made me feel double-happy.
Finding good friends have been a great experience, too. That @minnowsupport discord group is hillarious and funny, amazing times indeed!
My life after steemit?
Right now I don't think I'll have a life after Steemit. Steemit will be part of my life actually. I have a plan and my plan is to teach all Steemit community to speak English and Spanish, Right now I dont count with the proper equipment or sponsor -do you want to sponsor me?- but I will succeed, I know it and I feel it.
I want to thank @varunsangwan for giving us the chance to express and promote ourselves, For organizing this great contest and for banding together many people. I also want to thank @cervantes and @minnowsupport for the hard work they're doing, soon we will be Dolphin guys and it will be our time to give back.
