Point 1) Username: mountain.phil28

I was made aware of the STEEMIT platform by my friend geggi632@geggi632.
He is a hobby photographer producing really awesome stuff. After he told me everything that one has to know about STEEMIT I joined in.

All this happened at the beginning of last summer and since I'm from Austria I was going to spend a few weeks in the atmospheric mountains surrounding me. Therefore, I thought I'll share the wonderful impressions in the mountains on this platform and I included them in the name.

And also the number 28 is not chosen by chance. This is my favorite number! There is a whole range of mathematical-logical and emotional-irrational reasons. For those who like to juggle numbers in their heads: If you want you can try to find some of the mathematical-logical inherent beauty of this number! Just state your findings in the comments and I will answer if that's one of the reasons why I like 28 best.


Point 2) Statement on the real name


In fact, it takes a genius to derive my first name from my username, but to avoid an unbearable tension, here is the solution to this riddle: 'Philipp'

However, I won't shout my last name from the rooftops. So I want to stick to my first name and just say a few words about it: 'Philipp' is derived from the greek Philippos which in principle consists of two parts:

a. philos, meaning love, dear, loved, admired a.s.o.
b. hippos, meaning horse

It follows that I should totally be into horses. Well, I kind of get that they are admirable and beautiful animals, but I'm also amazed by a lot of other animals and wonders that nature provides us, so I can't conclude a really pronounced affection towars horses. :)

Point 3) Changing Username


To be honest, I've really gotten used to my STEEMIT username!
So even if could, I would not want to change it. Spontaneously, I also don't have a really crisp idea for a suitable and cool alternative name.


Point 4) #steemitnamechallenge tag is USED!
