My Introduction to HIVE

[aiminetwal]

Greetings everybody! I'm incredibly happy to finally be here.

My name is Aimin Etwal, and I'm a singer-songwriter. I was born in Mexico and grew up between England and Mozambique, and Antigua Guatemala is the place I currently call home.

My main instrument is the #guitar, although I also play cajón in some of my songs.

This is a song I wrote in spanish called La Flor del millón de pétalos (The flower with a million petals)

---

I've been very fortunate to have crossed paths with people from all over the world in my little town. Many of whom I've also shared the stage with, been influenced by, and have recorded in the studio with too.

---

I don't think of my music as a specific genre, but it does have elements of afro, latin, folk. So for now I refer to it as "music from the world".

I'm currently in the process of recording my first studio album called The Green Album, which contains songs in both English and Spanish that have been inspired by nature, love, and the incredible power we hold within as human beings; as children of the universe.

I'm recording at @recording-box in Guatemala City. You may have seen some of the songs I'm working on like I'm going to the world:

This was performed live with two of my favorite musicians Max Al Ra on Cajón and Adolfo Saavedra on bass.

---

In the process of recording, my friends @alex-rourke and @pamarias have introduced me to this crazy world of blockchain, which I must confess, I don't entirely understand, but will try my best to learn.

My first step in this journey starts today, with my becoming a member of this incredible family from all corners of the world. Today I joined HIVE.

Welcome to the Hive community @aiminetwal!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Seven suggestions to consider:

1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner
3. The Master Password and Owner key is only used to reset compromised passwords,
4. DO NOT lose your passwords; copy and store offline,
5. Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
6. An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
7. Do Not open any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @brittandjosie and @jamerussell from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hivians available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!

Thanks @rick-scarrow ! I'm very happy you like it; working on some new material at the moment and will be sharing it soon.

Hey, you started a business with @jongolson ??? that's so cool!

[rick-scarrow]

Glad to hear! Jon and I have been friends for about 20 years. He helped me launch a small event planning/promotions company long ago. It was a bit of a self serving venture aimed at giving us something fun to do on the weekends. The city we lived in at the time was quite bland lol.
