Hello Steemit Community,
One of my friends introduced me to the Steemit site not too long ago (@lilturtle), and I decided to just go ahead and sign up. I like the the concept of mixing blogging with some form of cryptocurrency and upvotes.
I wanted to try blogging again and I hope to get into the habit of posting my thoughts along with the pictures I tend to post.
So what do I like , and what I likely post about? There are a few topics that I have decided to wrap my head around.
Travel
I make a point of trying to travel at least once a year. So you may see me posting about past adventures or upcoming ones. I would like to keep track of what I do better, so I hope I get into the habit of posting not just pictures that interest me, but all the information I normally look for when I do plan trips.
For example, here's a recent trip that I took to Japan last October.
The above image features one of the places I went - Osaka Castle. Going forward, I hope to include additional information within my blog posts, like its history, what I found interesting about the area, where I stayed and would I go back again? Generally information to keep myself informed along with any other reader that would be interested in going there in the future. A typical question, for example, that people ask me is "how much did it cost?" and "where did you stay?".
Games
I am a gamer. Maybe not a competitive First-person shooter or League of Legend player, but I am a console gamer. I generally play Role-Playing games like the Tales series, Skyrim, and Final Fantasy. Lately, I've been playing Neverwinter on the Playstation 4 gaming console.
With that in mind, I would like to start posting some information on my character progress on here. A part of me doubts it will last long, and if so, I'll probably shift to other games that I play that's not necessarily Playstation 4 related. I also used to play Magic: The Gathering, dabbled in Hearthstone, and recently played D&D. So maybe I'll create blog posts from a beginner's perspective on the above-mentioned topics.
Food

I like to think myself a foodie. I enjoy finding good food, taking pictures of it, and hopefully revisiting the location at another time if I happen to be in the area (unless I see something new).
In regards to blog posts, I am hoping that if I do post about food-related adventures, that I remember to not just post the image of the food, but to provide my insight onto it. Questions I normally ask myself is - where is this, how much did I pay, what did I order, and is it worth coming back?
The pictures I posted to accompany my food section of this blog posts unfortunately didn't cover the amount I paid nor what I did order. I can tell you without a doubt that they are both locations I would go back to in Kobe, Japan.

I am hope that I encounter other fellow Steemit bloggers that share at least some of my interests.
Side question: Is there a beginner channel where I can read up on some tips and tricks? I noticed there is no Draft mode, and this blog has limited formatting (I did find this useful Steemit post by @lourenc).
