Happy Steemit birthday! One year on Steemit!!!! my story. Introduction (part 1 of 7)

Time to celebrate my first year on Steemit! Here is my story…

Hi everybody welcome to my first birthday on Steemit! I thought about on how to celebrate for a long time and decided to create seven posts, one post every day in the week I was born here on Steemit.
First of all I want to say thanks to all my followers because in the end that’s what it’s all about! I interacted with so many great people and I was able to read so many nice blogs created by great people on the platform! So please everybody keep sharing!

As mentioned I will have seven posts waiting for you this week, here is what you can expect from me this week;

• Reintroduction
• Series overview
• Inspirational accounts
• My pictures shared
• My pictures shared #2
• My second year on Steemit
• Basketball

@Heyitshaas
When I started to think about how I could celebrate me being on Steemit for a year I realized that many people that recently started to follow me don’t know who I am! Sure they read my posts but missed out on how it all started for me. Therefore I decided to re-introduce myself and give you an insight on how it all started here on Steemit for me.

It all started very simple, I just came home after traveling on and off for years and really wanted to connect with travel minded people. One day my friends @theywillkillyou and @world5list who are succesfull youtubers told me about Steemit and its potential and the account @heyitshaas was born.

I always say coming back is not the same as never leaving therefore I wanted to use my blog to help create a spot for travel junkies to share tips, tricks and stories in order to help people around the world and create a network of travelers. Looking back on my first year here I succeeded partly but for sure I interacted with many great people!

My trips to Asia for six months, living in Australia for one year in Canada for two and working on a Cruiseship are behind me and I am in Amsterdam for over a year right now, but I feel that the time is coming soon to go on the road again.

After around six months in to my Steemit adventure I added posts about my other passion to my account, Basketball! And since then I am posting about the NBA weekly.

First year facts
I had many ups and downs on the platform, overall I still love it but with downs I mean don’t having the time to really grow my account and in the like everybody in the beginning putting in a lot of time and get any following in return.
But a year has passed and I am committed to Steemit for the long run, really believe in the platform and the potential that is still undiscovered.

This is me in a nutshell;

• Born 18th June 2017
• Reputation score 62
• Upvote weight $0,20 (Steem low right now)
• Still a roach of minnow by the Steemitboard standards
• 2 times weekly author
• 190 blogs written
• 46 average upvotes per post

Again, Thanks everybody for your support! And if you like traveling and NBA Basketball look no further and enjoy my posts! Will be back tomorrow with an overview on what I posted about last year!
