im BACK! new account same fun guy! #introduceyourself #backstory

in #introduceyourself5 years ago

How to reintroduce oneself, lets begin with the original?

Then afterward i will let you know what has changed and what is still the same after theese two years, also the reason why i dont longer use that account much!

(if you want to see the pictures you must go to the original link at the bottom of the post.)

"Well, hello there!

ok, so where to begin?...

I am in my mid 20s living in Norway at the moment.

My days trying to code a little and setting up different hardware was long ago, or so it feels when im trying to understand technical stuff nowadays.
But i have always been curious, even if i might have a little paranoia, back in late 2012 i think? i heard about this bitcoin and Silkroad, and started reading about mining. i really wish i would have just kept my computer running while i was abroad that year instead of turning it off. (dont we all have a story like that)

So here we are a couple of years later and im finally back on the train/rocket. now lets see what i did in the meantime, and why i decided to now go as full in to crypto/blockchain as i am capable of.

I finished my conscriptive year in the army as a journalist with my own 30 page magazine monthly
so pretty much i got a phonecall from the army that i had to go, and i was working at a boring kiosk, so even tough i believe in pasifism i went.

long story short, i got the sweetest possible gig as a journalist with unlimited travel budget inside of the country, so i went for a ball, and visited all the places i wanted to but hadnt visit (ofcourse there had to be a military presence there)
inbeetween travels i continued to live with my GF and sometimes also smoke some weed.

I was a politician in both the muncipality and the state
So basicly for a 3 year period i did a very succsessfull and easy climb to middle goverment, and had the chance to go for a govermental post. then i realizeed that i was looking for change in a naive way, and that even in the "best" western countrys corruption is rampant.
Then i figured out that beeing a public person of interest was not to my liking, since i really enjoy my own privacy. (this is also one of the things that got me thinking about blockchain tech and bitcoin in the first place.)

New city new way to party

I moved, i was sick of the same moneygrubbing soleless finance types of guys i had been hanging around. so i went to study philosophy and figure out my next move.
i ended up in a quite underground partysquad with alot of anarchistsand liberalists, so i started focusing on what i could do ad looking at the world in a different manner (also took quite alot of psychedelics around then)
i started finding my real passion for art, trough the introduction of graffiti in my life by one of the anarchists. the joy i felt when going on a almost military style mission to conquer the wall was extremely euphoric, and i started to realize that experiences can get you higher than any drug!

Now that i had found a new way and purpose i knew what i had to do!

not too cool 4 Artschool

So i got accepted to this crazy free and open artschool in the heart of the capitol, there i learnt to look at things in new perspectives, and actually managed to get my painting skillz up to par. i also managed to find alot of likeminded people ready for a societal change!

the next two years then was filled with little tech but still got me thinking about how to connect two totally different worlds to make a new and amazing result!

Moroccan eco-liberalist freehaven

so i have bought some land in morocco, far off the beaten path where i wish to "retire" by the age of 30, this is a beatifull but dry spot with little regulations as to how and what we can build. i want to gather creatives and freedomseeking people from all over the world to come and enjoy.

Now i started really focusing on blockchain the last 6 months again and are doing some artistic work with it, as well as enjoying the benefits, the real life uses like for instance Steemit brings to the table. i also hope projects like BitNation might get us to a point where it hopefully doesnt matter where you come from!

My hope for steemit is that it will end up as my number one destination for news/blogs and picturesharing. the community here this far is atleast a unique one when it comes to feedback and the horizon of the topics.

So this was a little about me after lurking around her for about one month, keep on steemin guys!

if you enjoyed this article i would really appreciate a resteem so i hopefully can connect with more interesting figures in here!

Edit: napkin info and melon time! Mmm

Quite along time ago i lost my recovery for the old steemit account, but i am still logged in a couple of places and have therefore been able to power down. i became a little frustrated with how the platform developed, but mainly my life took some unforeseen events which made me less and less active. my postings over time also stuck to a couple of series that atleast where enjoyed by a few, as the "Oslo graffiti picture post" series, and some of my cigar reviews.

Now fast forward to 2019, when i finally had some time back at the computer, and started a new steemit account to try out all the new features!

i came late to Steemmonsters but have built up nicely, and i came back just in time for the big gaming bubble/outbreak, and even f i think the algorithms for trending and curation end up giving a little funny results sometimes, atleast i can get alot of enjoyment out of gaming on steemit, steemmonsters, nextcolony, (drugwars before too). but what really got me hooked where the new gaming platforms, first kryptogamers for me, but now im rolling alot over at epicdice, the possibillity to be "partowner" in a casino is a big feature i think! even if its dangerous gambling wise ;)

i will give you guys a real update about my new life with a boat, crypto and bartending soon. but i just wanted to give you guys a taste!
