First, welcome to Steemit! Glad you're liking the platform. I enjoy it, a lot!

Each region should have it's own @Steemfest ? That would be a kickass thing! Then top it off with a Steemfest WORLD event. In good ole Portugal!

As I browse through #introduceyourself a lot of Europeans are making their way here. Which is awesome! Why I don't think US is ready just yet for Steemit. Heck, if there was even mini-steemfest to get the ground stirred up. It would make a difference!
