Dear Steemians,
Who am I?
Such a loaded question……can we really boil down anybody’s existence to a few trite words? Probably not, but I’m going to try anyways!
I’m half French and half British,
I’m an Opera Singer
I’ve sung all over world notably at Carnegie Hall (see video below)…..and most importantly, I am a cryptomaniac! I’m obsessed with Bitcoin and the advent of cryptocurrency which is how I came across SteemIt to begin with!
And below is another video ……at 1:50 that’s me giving listeners a message live from a Carnegie Hall rehearsal. It’s an old video so I’m speaking in French as it was geared towards a French audience but music is music, they say it’s a universal language!
This Traveling Diva has a special fondness for the art of luxury travel. I’ve always loved the thrill of going off on an adventure. There’s nothing quite like those first moments in an exotic locale, taking in new sights and sounds or the chatter of faraway languages to make you feel truly alive. As I was fortunate enough to travel the world singing in Europe’s most beautiful Opera Houses my taste for travel and the opulent grew. With each new Michelin rated dinner in Paris or stay at The Ritz my standards became more and more exacting and the bar of what I had once thought possible slowly began to get higher until I decided to do away with it completely…..I suppose that makes me something of a Prima Donna of Travel.
()
Some people define luxury as the art of collecting material things. I say it’s the freedom to use one’s imagination without restriction and watch as each indulgent dream becomes a reality…that is true luxury.
And so, before you click away from this page and journey on through the SteemIt world, I would like to leave you with one of my favorite quotes by ancient Chinese poet Lao Tzu “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” Shall we take our first step together?
Yours Truly,
Victoria Baker

Welcome to Steemit! Just a tip, you will probably get more votes if you add a picture of yourself holding a Steemit sign to verify your account. :)
Thanks for the tip!
Welcome to Steem @travelingdiva I have upvoted and sent you a tip
Thanks! I'm new here- what's a tip?
Just figured out about the tip! THANKS a million!
Well bonjour traveling diva and welcome to Steemit, but I'm not sure I'm one to welcome you since I am new to Steemit also. A VERY DEAR friend introduced me to it and I'm just learning myself. I tried a simple post as a test, but after seeing yours, I must say I'm a tad embarrassed. Best of luck in everything you do. You have a definite upvote from me, and if I can figure out how to tip, you'll get one of those too. I'd ask you to follow me too, but as of right now, not a lot to follow.
Thanks @gvs27crypto!! I saw your first post and it was wonderful! I'm so glad your friend introduced you to SteemIt! I'm already one of your followers and I'm looking forward to reading more. Thanks for your kind comment, I really appreciate it!

Hi Victoria
Your voice is amazing. Please have a look at this post, https://steemit.com/openmic/@luzcypher/steemit-open-mic-week-51-record-your-performance-on-your-phone-enter-and-win-steem-sponsored-by-pfunk-and-luzcypher
All the Best!
Thanks a lot! Will check out your post!
I love Adagio by Tomaso Albinoni.
You sing so beautifully this song.
I made a short arrangement of the piece for classical guitar.
BTW the post above is by @luzcypher.
Thanks for your sweet comment! Yes, I love Albinoni also! Will take a listen to the arrangement
Welcome!
I'll be watching this space =) I'm part of two of the biggest and best curation teams here on Steemit, and hopefully when I'm big enough myself, want to make a music curation trail, so it's always great to have some more professionals around!
Following =)
Thanks Mobbs! I'm very interested in the music curation trail, would love to be a part of it! Yes, please do continue watching this space!

Welcome @travelingdiva
So beautiful!
Thanks for the warm welcome @moisesmcardona
Welcome Victoria! would love to hear more of your voice and looking forwards to read your stuff!! See you around :D
Thanks @yrja
Upvoted and followed. Nice music. I love to travel as well and look forward to reading your "luxury" travel reviews. I travel somewhere in the world every year, but definitely a step below luxury. Coach on the airplane and four star hotels...sometimes a five star...but rarely.
Travel is fun no matter how it's done! Thanks for your great comment, it's lovely to meet you!
