The SteemFest DREAM is REAL?? Here's my Entry!!!

Oh woah, where should I begin from here? How about an introducing of myself to everyone.

Hey there Steemians who's reading my post, I'm Aaron Leang originated from Kota Kinabalu, Land Below The Wind (psst 😉, those who don't know should really Google it quickly) but am currently living at Kuala Lumpur because of more opportunities here.

So where did I get to know Steemit? Well to begin, it all happen [flashback] ...... okay let's cut this short as that's going to be a long story. Many #TeamMalaysia Steemian should know who's @bitrocker2020, he's the one who introduces me back in Jul 2017, but I only signup for an account and didn't get active after that.

Fast forward four months, I have a catch up with @bitrocker2020, and he shares some of his moment and experience on his recent trip to SteemFest 2. It's a total woah feeling for me even by just looking at his pictures and of course, who would miss out this excellent video that @timsaid made.

Since that day onwards, attending SteemFest 3 has become a dream/goal as a Steemians and it marks the journey for my Steemit. I got myself hooked up with some of the excellent community builders in #TeamMalaysia, like @bitrocker2020, @maverickfoo and @davidke20 to spread the awesomeness of Steemit in Malaysia.

While myself focus more on the meet-ups or gathering [as we call it the Food Meet-Up, Malaysia meetups can't happen without food], I've organised a few dozens of meet-ups together with @joannewong, @zord189 and @elizacheng.

To think genuinely back in time, I've met up with more people in Steemit within few months compared to the years that I'm on Facebook. Steemit has become not just a platform to create content, doing charity and helping others but meeting new awesome people out there too!


I'm the leftmost red shirt skinny dude there!
I'm known as the "Black Hole" as most Steemian said 😅

With that said, I've been given the opportunity together with @joannewong to host and meet my first ever Steemians from overseas at our TeamMalaysia CNY Gathering 2018 back in February. They were the awesome Steemit Witness @firepower, lovely @sjennon, funny @shenoy, professional photographer @varunpinto and they were known as SteemFest great crew as well 😆.

From that gathering onwards, I've met lots of Steemians from overseas who have visited KL for vacation which include @macchiata, @nomadicsoul, @fararizky, @akbarrafs, @livinguktaiwan, @jrvacation, @scrooger, @iamdazu, and recently @fitinfun.

Of course, there will be some Steemian that I've missed out meeting with such as @sweetsssj and @the.foodini, but I do believe there will be another time soon.

Why I Want To Go SteemFest 3?


This time around, I would like to go out of Malaysia and meet more awesome Steemians out there in Krakow, Poland where many Steemians from different parts of the world will be gathering here. For some Steemian? It's a meetup reunion, right @sjennon 🙌🏻?

Let's not forget the food there shall we? A meetup without food ain't called a meetup plus western should be a combo with alcohol right? Thou in Malaysia, we have our Teh Tarik instead 🙈 , but then again, I must try it out there!

Some of the Steemians that I would love to meet up​ with during the Steem Fest 3: @ned, @roelandp, @anomadsoul, @blocktrades, @acidyo, @timsaid, sndbox founders (@voronoi & @hansikhouse), sndbox members and possibility everyone who is attending!!!

Of course, exploring Europe has been on my travelling list ever since my visit to London and Paris as an exchange student back in 2011 which it has been quite a long while ago and together with this impressive Win a Free Ticket to SteemFest in Krakow Poland! (And Possibly an All Expense Paid Trip depending on Support for these Posts) contest, I can't miss out this opportunity!

Attending SteemFest has become one of the dreams in my journey on Steemit, and I would like to thanks @aggroed, @dynamicgreentk, and @richardcrill (the judges for this competition) who took their time off to read every participant's post and I'm sure there are a lot​ out there.
