Hajime mashite - That's how we say „Nice to meet you“ over here in Japan.

Yes right- Japan, that's the place I have been living for about 10 years now and which has become a second home to me. With all the pros and cons a home has to offer.

I have been actively writing on Steemit for about a year now but after digging more and more behind it's flaws I was wondering if there is a similar project which may try to avoid making the same mistakes.

One of my friends then told me about Scorum and that he is actively enjoying the great community atmosphere over here. Thanks @running-japan-77 for the head-ups. It's great seeing such exiting and thriving blockchain-driven project with such huge potential.

Who am I ?

I grew up in Germany and in my younger days I used to be a huge (European) football-enthusiast, playing in some minor club in the neighborhood for the most of my youth and twenties.

And I was passionately supporting our city's underdog football team through some very rough and tough times, but never losing faith and hope that better days will come.

My amateur carrier has certainly come to and end, fortunately without any major injuries and broken bones. I definitely miss those old days, full of sweat and laughter. Great times with great buddies, but the world has kept turning and so have I.

The heroes of my childhood have grown older and have disappeared out of the corner of my eyes. „The Times They Are A-Changin'“ and I moved on and ended up over here in Japan, from where I could witness how „My team“ climbed the leagues and now is persistently knocking on the door of Bundesliga 1.

Being so far from home has helped me to take one step back and see things differently, but „Alte Liebe rostet nicht“ as we say in Germany, and old flame never dies. I'm still at the scores every weekend but these days I'm cheering more quietly.
But I do! EISERN UNION!

Back into the present, here I am now, freshly joined this exciting looking platform called Scorum and trying to find my way through.

I hope focusing on sport and everything around will be the big advantage for this place to maneuver through the storms reward-based social media platforms are experiencing these days.

What I am going to do here?

I want to make this the place where I can write about my outdoor and hiking experiences and where I can share some stories of my time as an very active but unsuccessful player and as a supporter who has seen way more rain than sunshine.

I'm still fairly new here, so as soon as time allows I want to keep digging into this promising place to discover some of the gems that seems to be buried here.

Of what I have seen, many articles are of great quality and full of information to make every sport enthusiast's heart jump.


It's really exiting being here. Yeah, I'm truly looking forward to making things happen and rocking the Scorum boat.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope to catch up with you soon.
