Re-introducing myself - my journey on Hive 😉

Hello, hi, Namaste to all Hive users reaching this post. I hope you are all doing great. So here is my post participating in the contest by Rozioo.

INTRODUCTION

So my name is Disha Bhatt, as you can already see in my profile 😝. I am an 18-year-old college student. (Going to be 19 on the 30th of this month.) This is my 2nd year of college; I am currently studying for a BSc in MATH.
I have different hobbies - sometimes cooking, sometimes singing, sometimes dancing and many more.
But mainly it's art and craft work. I am currently engaged with crochet items🧶, trying different things.

Also created an Instagram page regarding this - https://www.instagram.com/dishas_creativespace?igsh=MWFwcGY2eXVkNjB4bg== You can visit it 😁 and can follow 👉👈 if you want 😅.

Where I belong from?

I am from INDIA, specifically from a beautiful small city - Haldwani in Uttarakhand. My religion is Hinduism. I really love 🫶the place I belong to; it's all greenery here, very near the mountains. Fun fact that mountain's can be seen from the back side of my terrace.

How many years have I been on Hive?

I have been on Hive for more than 5 years; it's been an amazing experience. I published my first post when I was in my 9th standard ( 14 years old); it was in 2021.

How did I get to know about this platform?
My uncle (mama - brother of my mother) @bhattg introduced me to this platform when I visited Almora during my elder uncle's wedding.
At first, I wasn't able to write posts properly; I still remember that I wrote my favourite vegetable and colour in my intro post 😝.

Pros and cons of Hive

• From my perspective, Hive has many pros rather than
cons - because this is a platform where a person just invests his or her time and shares their views, ideas, skills, etc. And makes money using it.

• It's easy to use too. Also, many people do help one another, especially beginners.

• Personally, I prefer to share the whole process of the craft or other things I post, and many more people also do that.
This also helps to inspire others to try other things too.

•Most interesting are the contests, which are with new topics every time and also the prize makes one more excited. ( I generally take part in art and craft contests, and also achieved 1st position ones😅).

•There are different communities almost for every person with different choices.

Yeah, I would say there is 1 con, which is that the value of our wallet increases and decreases, and nowadays it's only decreasing. I know that it is normal, but yaa, it sometimes hits my mind. Increasing is okay but decreasing 😅 doesn't feel good.

Who I convinced to join this platform

I personally didn't convince anyone to create their account on Hive because I have seen my uncle and brother - they do tell many people about it. From those, some try, and many don't even try. Only 1%-2% stay consistent.
Though I am also not a very consistent person, but yaa I do post at least 3-4 times in a month, sometimes more than this.

So this much only, hope you all liked it.
Thank you for visiting my post 😊.
