Do you think going to SteemFest2 in Portugal this November would be an amazing experience, where you could meet your favourite authors, make new friends, learn more about Steemit, Steem and Blockchain, and experience another culture? But you are not sure if you can afford to pay for your plane ticket and your hotel?

Don't let it hold you back! If you really want to go, you can post your way there!

But how can I post my way there?... Well, there are a few different ways!

Enter Competitions 🏆

There are 2 competitions to help you pay your way to SteemFest2 that I know about at the moment. 1 is the @steemfestdreams competition that will end in a few days (so enter now if you can!)
For full details go to the original post by @steemfestdreams, but essentially you need to write a post about who you are and why you want to go to SteemFest2.

If you want to see my entry you can go here:https://steemit.com/steemfest/@hannahlicious/entering-the-steemfestdreams-competition-trying-to-make-my-steemit-dreams-come-true

The other competition that I was told about this month is one run by @stellabelle in which she will be sponsoring 2 people to go to SteemFest2, and to enter you would need to make a 3 minute video. Please see her post for full explanation on what you should convey in your video.

The deadline for her competition is the end of August, so you have a little more time to create a video you are proud of!

Keep Posting and Documenting! 📝

I intend to occasionally post about SteemFest2 and tally all the figures for the posts where I talk about SteemFest and put that towards my travel fund to pay for my ticket.

You could do the same thing. I have started a doc on my computer where I can keep a record of the posts as I go along.

You can blog all the way up to SteemFest, during and after! You could blog, vlog, photograph, write a poem about SteemFest, or bake SteemFest cupcakes - who knows! The possibilities are endless.

You might even have extremely good luck 🍀

While I was looking at the other entries for SteemFest2 I saw that one of the people who entered had received a comment on his entry to tell him to check his wallet.... when I checked his wallet I saw that someone had sent him an extremely generous donation of 300 Steem

Why would someone gift you 300 Steem for your SteemFest ticket? One can only wonder.... It is extremely kind of someone to do that, maybe they saw something in him that made them think he would be a great person to have at SteemFest. The Steemit community is awesome, and that is even more reason for you to want to go and to try and document your journey of how you will get there.

Will any of you be entering the SteemFest competitions? Let me know so I can come and give you an upvote and support you in any small way I can! 😍
