My first post on Steem - a shout out from Cape Town, South AfricasteemCreated with Sketch.

Hello Steemers,

I got accepted to join this amazing community about 2 hours ago. I am so excited and think it would only be appropriate to introduce myself.

My name is Thomas, I am 32 years old from the beautiful Mothercity - Cape Town, South Africa. I live with the love of my life and partner in crime, Michaela. She is from Czech Republic and has been staying with me in Cape Town for the past 10 months.

Here is a photo of me and Misha

We stay in the most amazing part of Cape Town known as Bloubergstrand (a picture below). Our house is always open for any of the Steemers visiting the Southern tip of Africa. It is not big or extremely modern, but we have an extra bedroom standing open just for you. We would love to welcome you.

I am a complete payments junkie and love every aspect of the worlds toughest industry - the payments industry. I co-founded two fintech startups known as Callpay.com and EFTsecure.co.za. It has been the most difficult chapter of my live but we keep working our buts off everyday. I am an entrepreneur by heart and keep pushing to realize my dream.

I hope you can follow me on my journey and who knows, maybe one day we have the opportunity to meet. I am proud to be a part of the Steem Family now and I am looking forward for to many interesting post, comments, likes.... I would also appreciate any tips on Steem, just to get me started in the right direction.

And now it is time to STEAM ON!!!

Best Regards

Thomas van der Spuy (and Misha)
