This week and next, @anomadsoul asks us to say who we want to meet at STEEMFest and that is an easy answer for me.
I want to meet all the people on STEEM, and especially those who attend STEEMFest. I like to socialize at events such as this. Back in the day, conference attending was part of my job, and meeting everyone who was there was part of the assignment. So I will do my best.
>Mention at least 5 people you would like to meet.
I am not particular or discerning. If you are a STEEMian, I want to meet you.
In an attempt to answer this request, I made a list of people who wrote a post for the last @blocktrades contest talking about their hopes and dreams of coming.
I have not read all the posts for the two contests so far, but I think about 90% of these people are making the effort to get to Bangkok. How many will really attend? I do not know. Some have financial or personal issues that might not be resolved. Others have already bought tickets.
Some of them I know in person already, and I am excited to see them again.
Some of them I know well online, and I cannot wait to meet them in person.
Some I only know the name, or do not even know the name, and I want to meet them too. My goal before STEEMFest happens is to visit their blogs and get to know them first in that way.
Here is the information I have so far and will update until the date comes.
All of these people have already posted to the second contest.
These are the upbeat go-getters for the most part, so I want to meet them all. Many of them, I already have met!
Most of them posted to the first contest too

These people have not posted about STEEMFest as far as I know.
@aaronleang - helpful to all and one of the first people I met in person when I arrived in Malaysia.
@abh12345 – Joining the engagement league was my best move almost two years ago. All Asher needs to do is post more frequently and he will have enough money to stay in a luxury suite!
@aggroed – He does so much for all of us.
@amico – world traveler, steem booster and barefoot walker
@amy-goodrich – My friend and supporter from Cambodia
@anggreklestari - Tasteem encourager who always gives me a boost.
@arcange – steemitboard and arcange reports have helped my from the start. I know he was at the last steemfest, so hopefully will be in Bangkok too.
@blocktrades – two people have told me they met “the blocktrades guy” at other STEEMFest, and this is how they both put it. I would like to meet the person who makes my transfers go so well.
@braaiboy - hoping to meet the man behind the BBQ
@fyrstikken vote-spreader extraordinaire
@good-karma - the man behind esteem - my fav dApp
@gtg – arranged for flight discounts helping so many other attend.
@happydolphin - A true supporter I want to meet in person
@hooiyewlim - My Malaysian neighbor and @tasteem's #1 reviewer.
@jarvie - theman behind @steempeak who saved the day when steemit and cloudflare teamed up to try to kill me.
@josediccus – huge booster for little people and helps many here.
@kimzwarch - my Malaysian friend who helped me up my curation game.
@kevinwong - Mayalsian powervoter
@marblely – who runs a ccc contest I love to enter.
@nathanmars – Nathan is off seeking billionaires to join steem now. I want him to find them and bring them with him to Bangkok. If you like pushup videos or not, there is no doubt that Nathan got us much needed action on Twitter, and I am grateful.
@roelandp – steemfest organizer and non-poster to the tag, lol.
@oldtimer - Lost in Canada; big traveler with great photo posts – needs a break
@siamcat – Tasteem helper and with “Siam” in the name!
@slowwalker – Can I meet the person behind the temple posts?
@smallearth - my supporter who helps me time after time and needs to post more :)
@taskmaster4450 - Such helpful posts to keep me on track and motivated. The person who convinced me dApps were the way to go.
@uwelang – One of my long-term online connections and someone who has helped me so many times. Bring some Germans, Uwe!
@wakeupkitty - So near and dear to my heart and far away. Someone who takes my minnow tips and succeeds beyond my wildest dreams.
Finally, I would like to meet all the witnesses not named here. They are the people who make STEEM work, so I would like to thank them in person.
My only regret with these lists is that I know I am missing people. Please let me know of you are one of them. And also please let me know if you do not want to be on these lists in future.
>Write the reasons, circumstances and what would you like to do with them etc.
I want to meet all these people because they are die-hard STEEMers who care enough to make such an effort to come to a conference event. I want to get to know them, have a conversation, and become friends. I want us all to learn knowledge that will help us all take STEEM to a higher level where we all know it should be.
>What's their Steem Fest Status?
Are they sure they are going?
Is it probable they attend?
Is there a small possibility?
Is there no possibility at all?
I put what I think I know in the list above. I will be watching as best I can until the time comes.
That’s all I’ve got so far. I am so excited to go to STEEMFEST this year. Europe is out of the question for me, so I did not even pay attention to the last STEEMFests. I was too new to understand what it was in 2017, and recovering from the fork in 2018. In 2019, I want to make up for lost time!
For those who do not know me, this is what I do on STEEM:
I work on three blogs here. I post 2-4 posts on each blog each day, cycling through the noted dApps below.
- share2steem - STEEM promo posts for twitter
- esteem - freewrite
- busy - Minnow Tips
- nTopaz - Photography
- share2steem - STEEM promo posts for twitter
- esteem- food and ccc posts
- tasteem - restaurant reviews
- dlike - Sharing health news
- share2steem - STEEM promo posts for twitter
- esteem - dApp and gaming Reviews
- dpoll- dApp and STEEM questions
- busy - lyrics challenges
Between these three blogs, I write over 400 comments a week for various reasons. Sometimes it is hard to keep up, but I am grateful for every message I get.
The most important work I do here is write minnow tips to help others succeed:
NOTE: share2steem is dead at the moment. Wishing it would come back
I'm really a weight loss coach
Losing weight naturally in 2011 after 50 years of miserable obesity is why I am on the internet at all. If you want help, I want to help you.

Hello @fitinfun
For me it would be a great pleasure to meet you at that great steemian meeting
The Venezuelan government does not allow me to leave besides I do not have the resources, but if I could go I would already be booking for it there.
I send you a big hug and I hope and wish you could attend
Thank you so much, lanzjoseg. I wish all of you from VZ could come and I pray for your troubles to cease daily.

Sounds like fun, but no way I can swing a trip to Bangkok. Hope you have fun and get to meet lots of the people on your list.
I know - you were one of my dream attendees @thdarkhorse :)
You are to kind. It would take free airfare and a ticket...I probably could manage a hotel and food. The kids are just to expensive...well we let them be to expensive. Between horseback riding lessons, parkour, volleyball, and so forth they eat up pretty much all of my expendable money. But they are very well rounded kids and keep great grades to keep being allowed to do their activities so it's worth the sacrifices on my end.
I hear you on all that about kids. Mine went to all kinds of places, classes and camps that cost an arm and a leg while I stayed home. I don't regret any of it.
You can still do these contest posts though. You never know, and I do not think the Fests can ever be in the US because so many steemers would not be able to get through the border requirements there.
Lol, I never said you were a monster ;) No idea where you get that idea from lol.. it's very simple, sometimes I feel I need to help someone even though I don't have the energy or time for it, which was the case when I read kitty's tag ... So I went through your cards and then DM'd your son (who I thought was you according to the post on his account) who knew nothing about the thing.. In that case I still wish you all the best to get things solved, but I rather spend my time on my own things which are important as well... Nothing more, nothing less.. And yes, I did found it an odd situation, but I had no intentions of interfering in that.. hope it got solved ;)
My son has severe ptsd, due to what he went through with me and my obesity when he was very young. I am the biggest trigger for him, and based on what he told me that day, I can only imagine what he said to you.
My son's problems and those of many more kids with obese and sick parents are the reason I do what I do. I did not understand until it was too late.
I am just so sorry you had to be involved in any of it, @anouk.nox, and I hope we get to meet at STEEMFest!
Please don't worry about that, no judgement here .. I just stepped away at that moment as it wasn't the best time for me to help someone anyway because of a bill that turned out to be much bigger because of a miscommunication.. but I thought I would try to buy and sell some cards .. Too bad you found out to late , good that you are doing something for others now ;)
Your son didn't say anything bad about you, he even asked me not to be mean to you...
I will do my best to get there, time will tell if it works out ;)
Aw! Well, we are communicating pretty well since then, and I still have not sold the cards. He is actually on board with the idea now.
I hope we both get our money troubles solved asap!
We will be there. I didn't see the prompt for the last post. Will have to go check it out. Thanks for the heads up @fitinfun.
Look forward to meeting you in person in 106 days!

Haha! and get your wife. @mumma-monza on the stick too! I can't wait to meet you both in person, and thank you for the head's up on the day count too.
Way to go really, that was long, thanks for mentioning. Steemfest has often been much of a dream I hope to achieve, however financial constraints is the reason why I may not, but I think I'll attend someday.
Well, maybe for next year, @josediccus. You are one of the shining lights here.
Thanks for the nice words! I hope i can make it ^^
Posted using Partiko iOS
You're welcome, @joythewanderer. I hope you will be there too. I love to see all your trips and so sorry I missed you in KL. Even though I live here, you were about 2.5 hours away from me for the meetup. This city is huge!
Yea the city is so big indeed no worries! Hope to see you in Bangkok, I guess you are probably going?
来来来 we can continue our foodie walks in BKK! hahah
Posted using Partiko Android
That sounds certainly fun!
Girl, you have a serious counting problem 😅🤣😂!
Not that I am doing better.
I wrote my post days ago and forgot to post it 😪🤐.
Nice list, many I know, some not.
Once back in hospital I can pay them a visit.
Are the money issues solved?
😙💕
Posted using Partiko Android
It said at least 5, lol! Aw - I have forgotten posts too. Please get it done. We can meet up :)
Sorry about the hospital again. I hope thisis all done soon. And no -still stressing on money, but tasteem is back up anyway, so I can do that. No time for any negative thoughts today.
Creativity (and positivity) do the trick 💕
Posted using Partiko Android
Absolutely! It works for me :)
I was thinking the exact same thing, then I reread the original post and noticed that it said "at least" 5.
hehehe wow! you went on a serious tagfest this time hahaa..and indeed it will be the bomb meeting all of these people and I think a lot of them will actually be there
(ps....when I look at my name....I think you are mixing it up with @celestal since I have no mohawk and dried fruit lololol)
Aw! you are right, @karinxxl! Thank you so much and I will fix that now :) I was rushing to get done!
Yup, that is probably me, haha!
Posted using Partiko Android
Wow that's a long list! But the more the merrier 😃
Posted using Partiko Android
I'm thinking it is kind of short on attendees, but maybe people are not thinking of STEEMFest yet.

Thank you so much for the sweet mention.
I am still hoping to win a ticket if possible haha.
But right now I don't have enough and it is not nice to power down and the rest of the team doesn't have enough support in curation

The flight ticket to Bangkok is only $25 usd or so. I will come back by train/bus for the same price. I do not know why the return flight is so much more, but I will have a lot to bring back anyway, so I would not want to fly and check luggage.
As to the conference fee - ergh...
I hope you can make it too, @littlenewthings. Maybe one day we will meet in KL. Saturday's meetup in 2 hours from me, so I will not be able to go.
Aw it's a pity that you can't make it for the Meetup. I think you can take a train but not sure how far that is. Trains are faster I think.
Regarding the conference, I am hoping I can win the ticket otherwise I will need to scrap every cent or offer my card making services for steem so that I can afford a plankton ticket at least.
I am already stuck with my money for my mom's cornea surgery.
