Hellllllo! From me to you! I am a newbie myself. I try to comment and never just upvote. I am trying to find my way around still. I like to have conversations, and like to engage with people. So far, I am dipping into a few while still trying to find more.
The Weekend has given fun writing prompts every weekend. I like Wednesday Walk where you can take a walk amd talk about where you are taking people. I have just heard about Cross Culture to learn about other cultures. I also like Foodies Bee Hive for food stuffs. The Inkwell seems to he where you share stories. I like photography groups also.
I hope some of this helps. I am only about a months here, but wanted to share some bits that I hope help.
Another newbie, yay 😊hi @liftslikealady, sounds like you have picked up a lot in 1 month. It's quite an information overload here, so that gives one hope for picking ones way through the milieu of content and communities available, thank you. I will add your suggestions to my list too...looks like I am going to be kept quite busy in the odd hour I have each day to be here😆. I assume as you like to have conversations that you are finding the engagement here enjoyable? I certainly was beyond surprised at how many people have commented on this random newbie post, so thank you for being one of them. I will come and say hi on one of your posts as soon as I get done replying here 😊
