Hello, My Name is Erin - Team Colombia - Los Cafeteros
Every day starts with the smell of locally grown, freshly brewed coffee and family time! Hello, my name is Erin Donaldson and I am proud to be a member of Team Colombia - Los Cafeteros.
As a foreign resident originally from the United States, all my posts during #thediarygame will be in my native language - English.
I have been a resident of the Eje Cafetero, or Coffee Axis of Colombia, since February of 2013. For me it was love at first sight when I arrived in Pereira, Department of Risaralda - also known as el Capital del Eje. My entrance was as an English Teacher, but I discovered my true life passion upon arrival: Writing.
My favorite things are Writing, Tango dance, Tai Chi, Travel, Coffee and Horses. I live with my mother, who also moved down here, and my son who was born in Pereira. Together we are making a life here and we can't imagine living anywhere else.
Prior to COVID19, I was working as an independent cultural journalist, doing content marketing based on tourism, and expat lifestyle consulting. Today, I am once again teaching English, and earning via my writing with Steemit, as an alternative to an industry that is extremely slow for now.
As a Steemian I have been in the ecosystem since 2017, but recently active since May of this year. I believe that Steemit has a bright future and I look forward to being a part of it!
Big hugs and tons of love to all my compadres in Team Colombia - Los Cafeteros! #SteemON

there seems to be a wonderful connection to t'ai chi.
as a fellow practioner.(wang style).
i would love us to be a collective
Sure! I'm a huge fan of it - been practicing for something like 3 years...
i saw your karateka post also. i trained in tandem with both arts.
shotokan jitsu.
many years ago now.
there is something inspiring about these arts.
a self confidence. a feeling of physical spatial awareness is hightened.
keep going , you look pretty competent at it.
I love how I feel when I do my once/twice a week defense/kicking workout. In fact, I have had a lot more time to go back over technique and strength. Also doing more hiking out in nature in the cloud forest next to my neighborhood. I will be writing more about my Tai Chi Karate training experience in the next season starting on Saturday! Let's keep in touch.
that sounds very positive. productive and self reinforcing.
i would like to keep in touch
