Introducing my family and our Adventures

in #introduceyourself6 years ago (edited)

In the words of a good friend - Our family always takes the road less traveled. We've given up the comforts of life back 'home' to experience all the world has to offer.

Our Family: we're Expat's that live the Galapagos Islands. I'm a stay at home father and when I'm not doing the daycare gig I tour and work in Rock'N'Roll as a Stage Manager, a High Rigger, and as a Sound Engineer. My gorgeous wife is a professor of Mathematics, Geography, and English. Our 3y/o son is a born adventurer - current life goals are to become a 'good pirate' - he speaks English, Spanish, some Vietnamese, and lots of Dinosaur.

We try to live as traveler's and not as tourists. The distinction as we see it is - We strive for experiences and connections with others around the globe - we're not out there just checking off items out of a guide book. And we do it all with our amazing 3y/o boy - Motorcycle tours through Vietnam, open ocean adventures in Indonesia, climbing active volcanoes in the Galapagos - he's always with us and always down for adventure!

So, will you follow us here on steemit?

  • We'll share with you our adventures - both here in the Galapagos and throughout the world
  • I will show you the backstage and front of concert's across the America's
  • Maybe a few things about meditation and martial arts
  • Finally, we'll post up our tips for travel with little kids

Oh, and we hope to share with you our knowledge on how to take the road less traveled - How to leave the comforts of your home so you to can experience the dream of living life abroad.

We hope you'll join us!

Hello mxmadventures! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

Thanks veseloff! Consider it done!

Hey very cool lifestyle! Don't forget to visit many beautiful places in Indonesia if you have a chance :)

My recommendation other than Bali are Bangka Belitung Island and Lombok. Both have very nice beaches along its coast. Godspeed.
