How we met earliest adopter of steemit at Sabah aka North Borneo.

in #teammalaysia6 years ago

Greetings my fellow Steemians,

Can you imagine getting acquainted with people from the other side of the world without steemit?

Steemit made it very possible to do that.

How did it happen?

Yesterday, I dropped by at @wilsonkoh's house as I would normally do on my way back from work.

I was told about the meet up with very senior steemians in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah aka North Borneo.

Though I was tired but there was NO way I'm going to miss the opportunity. Thanks buddy @wilsonkoh.

The meetup

As soon as we got to the meetup place, we saw a couple of unfamiliar faces. Then, I knew it was for real.

They were very friendly. @the-alien came all the way from Spain and @budgetbucketlist from New Zealand.
Sabah aka North Borneo was the perfect place! After introducing ourselves, we didn't waste our time and did the most important thing, took pictures. Taking picture has been a compulsory skills on this platform.😁

@budgetbucketlist, @the-alien and me @papanog did a we-fie while waiting for our pictures to be taken together as shown in the picture below with @wilsonkoh, @veenang, @viverridae and @danieldoughty.

The earliest adopter

They are one of the earliest adopters on the steemit platform. Same badge as another fellow steemians who have been consistently supporting us, @kevinwong.

The conversation was awesome as we understand what it meant to be on this platform.
And the reason why we are all on the steemit plaform. A lot of very valuable info has been shared by both @the-alien and @budgetbucketlist that night. Which we were truly grateful for.

Travel around the world

@budgetbucketlist had also shared the wonderful opportunity given by this platform that enable her to travel all around the world using steem earned from steemit. Number of countries that have been visited so far is 53.

Despite the username, @the-alien is no stranger to the steemit community. He has been a speaker on a couple of STEEMFEST event.

However, he couldn't not make it on the last steemfest held at Lisbon, Portugal.

What next?

We would be very much appreciate it if both @the-alien and @budgetbucketlist could come back to Kota Kinabalu Sabah aka North Borneo on the 3rd quarter of the year together with their friends who are also a well known steemian such as @donkeypong, who happened to be here several years ago, and maybe the co-founder @ned himself.

Wow! That would be totally awesome! It will immediately catapult #teammalaysia tag several notch higher in the map of steemit platform. Hopefully.

Last but not least

Thank you for @wilsonkoh, @danieldoughty, @viverridae and @veenang for making the meetup with steemit earliest adopter possible.
The beers was very refreshing.
A BIG THANK YOU to @the-alien and @budgetbucketlist for the support.

Thank you for reading.
Cheers

Thanks for meeting up @papanog! I had a great time meeting all of you. :)

P.S: I wasn't at steemfest since I had some important stuff I couldn't get around. That's what I was explaining to the guys actually. Which is why I don't want to miss the 3rd one and the Project X in September :)

Anyways, thanks for meeting up and I hope you have a great week!

Thanks for the medical advice :)

Thanks for the clarification. My bad😅.
