Beautiful words there @clio
yes its true, Steemit makes the world so much more smaller, and it is cool to share ideas with people from different cultures. I just was reading an old post from @shello about the 'fake' missile in Hawaii. These kinds of things are so good to read for somebody first hand in stead of only from the news
That is certainly true. I had the same experience with the post from @progressivechef about the hurricane in Madagascar. And that hurricane wasn't even on the news here.
News is so subjective on which country you are in.
Its true, also here not even a half world about Madagaskar when that happened. While you would expect people here to have lots of attention for hurricane minded stories.
(Our news here in mostly CNN. If you follow that you only would know what is going on in the states, and have the feeling that the world could end any second)
