Introducing Myself - with lots of husky pictures!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemians!



My name is Ryan (pictured right), I'm 24, and Loki here is my partner in crime, he's coming up for 3 this month. I'm a mathematician working in the financial sector in the UK, though I would like to become a full-time trader and move to America, preferably somewhere dry and hot - Texas?

As the Metallica tee - and the hair, and maybe even the beard - suggest, I'm a big metal/rock fan! It would be hard to quote a favourite band but a couple that would certainly make the list are: Metallica, Black Sabbath, Kiss, Motley Crue. Anything alternative is probably on my Spotify already.

We met Summer and Greywind!!!!

Yup. We went on the Game of Thrones tour in Belfast and got to spend quite a bit of time with the dire wolves, Summer and Greywind are actually named Odin and Thor... and I have Loki! There were a lot of set visits, too, Winterfell bore many resemblances even without the CGI or scenery. And the 2nd best part would have to be wielding a replica Ice!

This thing was huge! And incredibly heavy.

Honestly, the few days we spent in Belfast were fantastic. One of my fondest memories was spending the entire day at the zoo as there were only a handful of people in there. I can't say that there have been any other days in my life where I was as content to let the day take its natural course without a worry in the world. We probably spent about an hour just watching these seals swim around...


I hope to become part of the community here at Steem, my posts will likely be a mixture of Crypto, dog pictures, and anything I find worthy of a repost from Reddit! Oh, before I forget, are there many avid gym-goers here? My number one hobby is powerlifting!

Welcome to Steemit @rykurex :)

Welcome to Steemit, rykurex! Best wish to you for a very happy journey here on this platform :)

Welcome, Ryan! Great to have you here, friend. Craaazy deadlift man! Followed ;)

I highly recommend reading through Steemit's FAQ to get to know more details about the system --> https://steemit.com/faq.html

Thanks man! I will have a read through that and all the other links I've been given :)

You had me at huskies. LOL. And Texas?! Well, whadda' know...I'M in Texas!!! And a metal fan? Oh, you should check out @crimsonclad's "Full Force Thursday" metal internet radio show on mspwaves.com, airing at 1am (UTC) Friday. I think you'd enjoy it. I love the pics, and look forward to seeing more, and reading any crypto posts. (Any posts that demystify crypto for this total newbie will be read and upvoted.) Welsome to Steemit. I hope you find success here, and enjoy it here.

Hey, thanks! And that's awesome, I really prefer the hot weather!

I'll be sure to check out the show, Friday is great to listen to Planet Rock, I think Alice Cooper's show is still on a Friday night. Most of my crypto posts will be technical analysis since I want to become a trader :P

It's on Friday, at 1 am. So, an hour after midnight. It's on , here in Texas (Central time) at 8 pm, Thursday night. It's a little confusing, we know, but all showtimes are listed in UTC.

Did you say... husky??
