My Introductory Post :)

Hi! I'm new to this platform, and I'm excited to be part of the community. This is my first post, so I'd take a moment to introduce myself.

My name is Irish Alyssa Siao, but you can call me "Aly", I am 20 years old,I'm from Philippines and I am an online seller and a housewife who strives to balance my work and responsibilities at home every day.

I like taking pictures of myself because
it makes me feel more confident.

My hobby is baking, and I really enjoy making different treats for my family and friends. I started baking because I wanted to make homemade desserts that people could enjoy.

I also like cooking. My favorite dish to make is pork adobo because it is the first dish I learned how to cook.

I love going to the beach because it is one of the places where i feel calm and happy.I enjoy looking at the beautiful views,listening to the sound of the waves,and feeling the fresh air.. Whenever I feel tired or stressed, going to the beach helps me relax and refresh my mind.I also love taking pictures of myself and the scenery because I want to keep memories of the places I visit.

And this is my family,at 20 years old,I have already experienced many challenges and lessons in life.Being the firstborn among five siblings
taught me to becomeresponsible and mature at an early age.Growing up in a broken family was not easy, and it helped shape me into the person I am today. Since my mother does not work because she needs to take care of my younger siblings, I became the breadwinner of our family. I work hard every day to help provide for our needs and support my family in any way I can. Although the responsibility is not always easy, it motivates me to keep going and do my best for the people I love.

Even though life can be difficult, I still find ways to enjoy and appreciate every moment. I am grateful that I found my husband, who became my partner and a source of happiness in my life.

I also have a lot of friends. Even though we’re not always together, we still talk and check on each other. I’m happy to have friends who are always there for me.

I joined Hive because I love sharing the things that make me happy and capturing beautiful moments through photography.

I was onboarded by @antonette and @chinito, and they helped me get started on Hive. They guided me through the basics, like creating posts, interacting with other users, and understanding the community rules and because of their help, I quickly became more comfortable using Hive and learned how to be an active member of the community. I'm thankful for the time and effort they spent helping me get started.

The rules of Hive and PeakD teach users to be responsible when creating and sharing content. We should post our own work, avoid copying from others and using ai.
