Hello lovely Hivians,
I't has been about 2 months I have joined Hive blog. Today I'm going to share with you my thoughs and feelings about Hive. A quick talk about myself, I'm a Vietnamese 2* 😃 years old and still single. At the same age of mine, almost of my friends got married and had chirldren. That's one of reasons why I'm always away from home since everytime I'm back home- my parents keep urging me to settle down and have a family 😁 or neighbours keep asking "When are you going to get married, Trang? ". I used to feel uncomfortable but it has repeated for years and I'm ok for it now and just smile when someone asks me that same question but no answers...lol.
You can see my posts all about travel; yes I love travelling, I'm still roaming around, like meeting people all around the world and discovering stunning attractions. For me, travel is life and I find who I truly am when I keep moving. I'm lucky to experience, work and live in few countries and some of them I love like: New Zealaand, Philipines and Singapore, etc. They are the most memorable treasure that I will never forget in my life.

Let's talk about Hive. I got to know Hive through a Friend @jacuzzi. Well; at first, I didn't totally understand anything about @hive or @hivecommunity and how it works. I can say I had a big 0 knowledge about Crypto and Blockchain, and yea I don't even write any content about travel before. I'm not interested in social networks either, like I just use Facebook for about 10 years, no Instagram or Twitter because as I find it lazy and unmotived to post or write a long content or story. I feel bored of Facebook recently and fortunately, I'm on board this amazing platform.
It's always difficult at first when you start learning something really new. I was confused about many things here such as: curation, communities, power up, bandwith, deligation, witness,bots and so on. Thanks God, with the enthusiastic explanation and guide from my referer, I have been gaining a lot and I'm so grateful.
It came at the time when here I'm living-Da Nang becoming the epicenter for a second outbreak of Covid-19 in Viet Nam and we went under another lockdown and traveling restriction for more than 6 weeks. It was a terrible and tough time but then I started looking into Hive and sharing my travel and this turned out amazingly. As I told, I never wrote before and English writing is not my best skill 🙂.
I was surprised when my first posts getting upvotes from many Hivers and pinned as "Honorable Mentions" and Top 3 in Daily Travel Digest #989 on @haveyoubeenhere and this is also one of my top favourate communities on Hive where I can share everything about my travel and don't forget to use @pinmapple to have your post on the map. 🙂
Meanwhile, I got a few nominations for the deligation from @galenkp and it made me so happy. @engagetheweekend is another awsome community I have recently joined. There is weeks' topic and you can share your weekend on the community to engage with others and even get rewards from most engaging person on chain @galenkp 😄
For those who love taking photograph of beautiful nature and of course, there are some communities like @amazingnature @photography @Pictureaday, etc where all your beautiful photography are welcome to be posted 😄
I also find it fun joining @phortun special weekly photo challenge known as "Appreciate Beauty of Nature" which I submitt my entries to the round in the comment and he will pick 3 winners and give full upvote on the entries.
There are few fancy contests I'm interested like : Sea Photography Contest hosted by @marc-allaria and 'Love The Clouds' Contest organized by @tobetada.
So many fun activities out here and I'm getting to join some soon :

With my limited understanding at the moment, I can't name all great challenges, contests games or orther fields regarding to Crypto out but I know there are more fantastic things on platform I will check out soon. 🙂
I have met many amazing people here who are willing to answer any question, assist you along and support newbie. So I'm not alone, you are not alone-we are in this together and inspire each other 😍
Thanks to Hive and my Referer, I have learned a lot and really enjoy being apart of this awsome community.
Thanks for viewing my post and Have a Blessed Week
