Finally I'm here

in #introducing7 years ago (edited)

So, here I am, after waiting a week for my account to be verified. But let's not get started negatively, I am actually quite hyped to get started here. For the following reason:

I am a 27-year-old teacher at a high school in the Netherlands, I teach biology. I started working at this school this year (in the Netherlands a school year starts at the start of September and ends at the start of Juli, so that is nearly a full year of employment now. At this school, I have a couple of colleagues that really enjoy using the modern world and ICT into their classes, this includes social media and crypto currency. Lately we (myself and my colleagues) have started trading crypto currencies which we really enjoy, even our wives are beïng dragged into this, but let's stay on topic. One of my colleagues shared a video of @jerrybanfield about him, very enthusiastically, explaining about what steem is and how this works. This video got me completely hyped and I am now thinking about exploring the possibilities to implement steem into classes.

Social media can be incredibly interesting for study purposes and I honestly think that crypto currency will be the economic future (or at least will play a huge role in how we pay for things). Steem might help me explain this to the kids I teach.

What more can I tell about myself? I am married to my lovely wife for almost 3 years (time is flying) and we have 2 beautiful children: a boy of 2,5 years old named after me: Finn and a daughter of 3 months named after my sister in law called Fenna.

Here is a picture of me and my son on my bike.
