First of the bat, I would like to say thank you to everyone who is organizing these contests. They might give me a shot to attend Steemfest!

I think you can find all relevant information on my entry in my post: https://steemit.com/steemfest/@martibis/steemfest-here-i-come

TL:DR: I came into steemit, fell in love with the community, created Steemit Worldmap, saw a post hitchhiking to Steemfest, I'm joining up on the hitchhiking adventure and hopefully for Steemfest itself too!
