New guy here, come on in! Let me introduce myself...
That´s me and my son, it was back in 2010, he was 12 years old. He´s now almost 22, and I´m almost 52!
I´m from Venezuela, and although this is not exactly the best time for us venezuelans, I always try to keep my spirit high!
I have a beautiful and wonderful wife, and he´s our only son.
I love music -rock is my thing, although I enjoy other genres too-, I play guitar, I love movies, I like computers, I´m a fan of the old Range Rover -first generation- and I used to have one, here it is:
Sadly, I could no longer afford to own it and had to sell it, about 20 years ago.
Regarding music, although I play guitar since I was 12, it wasn´t until some 10 years ago that I decided to learn properly, and finally, after years dreaming about it, I got my beloved electric guitar two years ago in 2018, an Agile AL3000, Les Paul style guitar (it was actually an unexpected gift from a good friend; I´m not ashamed to confess that I shed some tears that day...). Again, here I´m with my son the day I got it:
Can´t describe how happy I was. For some time I played at church, here we were rehearsing:
I am interested in many things and would love to talk about them: music, guitar, movies, suvs and 4x4s -land rovers especially!-, computers, family, relationship, making money on the internet, topics on being successful but without loosing your humanity and dignity... Lots of topics, really.
I hope I can contribute with quality content threads, and I hope we can share our thoughts on everything! Really looking forward to connect with many people here! I´ve just joined today, but there are many interesting topics to read and discuss; I´m afraid there´s not enough hours in a day.
Finally, here I am with my wife. This was in 2013. We didn´t know what was coming back then.
This is not the time and place to talk about it, but it is our faith in God that help us get through all these hard times. Despite everything, we´re still walking towards the future; sometimes needing a hand, and sometimes giving a hand. The will of our spirits will always be ours.
I´m very happy to have joined the Steemit family. Thanks!

I had a black guitar. Can you swim very fast?
Great! Why you get rid of it? Not fast, but sure I can. Have a great day!

Welcome to steemit!! Hopefully the conditions in Venezuela improve soon, it must be a challenge to continue on. Keep hopeful. Goof luck on the platform :)
Thanks! I´m sure better days will come, I just wish it doesn´t take too long, and my son -and all the young people here, and the elderly- can enjoy a better (normal?) life. Thanks again! Saludos!
That would be wonderful if it happened, it's a shame how the people are sabotaged like that. I watch closely what happens in your country because they are trying to do the same thing in Canada especially Alberta, we are at the early stages still. Saludos :)
@ladybug146 Thanks again, I appreciate all the support! Yes, watch out, it´s scary! By the way, I´ve just noticed your steem gift. Thanks! Have to find out what can be done with it, though :)
"power up" function will add it to your "stake" and will add value behind your vote as you accumulate/blog and get more steem over time. The steem that you stake/power up also earns interest as you accumulate. It's a slow journey but it adds up.

Thanks! I have to learn a lot about this Steem world. But so far I´m enjoying the experience. With "stoner" you mean a Rolling Stone fan? Well, in any case, I´m afraid I´m not much of a fan, I only like very few songs. Thanks!
Welcome to Steem :) The Venezuelan community of Steem is one of the largest and most active. Have fun in your new virtual home ;)
Thanks! I´m happy to hear that! Well, aside of the opportunity to know great people, the fact that you can earn some money doing something you like, it´s great too! Hope to see you around!
I can see you already know a lot about how it works here :) Enjoy the ride man.
