What a thoughtful, generous thing for you to do. Kudos @serejandmyself
I would love to go to SteemFest.
My birthday is that week and Amsterdam is a beautiful city. The best birthday gift I can imagine would be a ticket to SteemFest this year.
Everyone 'deserves' to go and I'm sad you can't make it.

Some of the coolest authors will be there and meeting @ned and @dantheman would be a privilege.

I have only been on Steemit for just under a month and am very excited to have multiple posts picked up by The Curie Project @curie
Getting to know other great authors like @pfunk @smooth @roelandp @cryptos and the list goes on, would be a gift I would never forget.

I have been on many social media sites in my life but never felt the urge to connect with people like I do with Steemit. This is a revolutionary platform and I want to connect with the founders and people on the forefront of Steemit to hear firsthand their interpretation of where they see Steemit going in the future.
If I had a chance to go, I would interview as many people, whales to minnows alike, asking them questions that the Steemit community would like to ask if they were there. Then I would post it, of course. I would be the eyes and ears of my followers and all Steemians asking them what they want to asked on there behalf.
Visiting and posting about the coffee shops (@ozmaster would love that, I'm sure), art and other things related to Amsterdam would be on the menu as well.
I thank you for your generosity and hope to meet you some day at a Meetup somewhere and I thank the Steem community for inspiring me to write and for the great content they have shared. Steemit is awesome and I'm grateful to be part of it. To whoever you choose to gift your ticket to, congratulations and if you choose me I will be forever thankful and genuinely in your debt. Steem On!
