Hello World of Steem!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

First my apologies. I started posting here without even introducing myself. How rude of me! I have so much to learn and things still seem confusing :)

So just a little about me. My name is Adonis and yes I was named after the Greek god. My parents got a little overzealous and had high hopes for me, bless their souls. Alas, it didn't pan out the way they had hoped. I'm not a god and I'm not even Greek. I'm just an ordinary dude who was born in the Philippines and grew up in California.

I love to ride! You can usually find me on the slopes during the winter.


Love to hike too. I did this hike randomly in Slovakia.


A motorcycle I customized a couple of years ago.

As you can see from the pictures, I'm into outdoor adventures, travel, motorcycles, snowboarding, and oddly enough, quantum mechanics. I work as a Software Developer during the day and dabble in photography and run a travel blog called Always Wanderlust


A very old church in Lake Ohrid in Macedonia.

I've been to over 53 countries and wish I could visit all the 195 (as of this writing) in my lifetime. I am not a trust fund child. I paid my way through university with two jobs and a diet of Top Ramen which I still eat from time to time to this day :)


Having a giant fun in the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia!

I have a titanium rod in my left fibula from an accident that put me out for 8 months. I can feel my knees ache whenever there's a change in the weather because of it. Other than that, I'm still whole.


I like furry woodland creatures

Anyways, I'm always looking for hundreds of different ways to earn a location independent income so I can travel as much as I can and escape the cubicle. So, wishin' you guys some good vibes and positive vibrations.

Welcome! Pretty common mistake to not introduce yourself, but never too late! Nice pictures, and 53 countries, I'm jealous. Got a favorites? Look forward to more posts, got my follow

Yeah for general travel I'd say Romania! You got the best of what Western Europe has to offer for 1/3rd of the price :) If nature is your thing, Norway is amazing!

Very interesting, I never thought of Romania, but I will have to look into it! Thanks!
