**12 days ago I made a post where I said you can ask me anything. Well, here are my answers. I obviously don’t have all the answers to everything, but I’ll give this a go. Thank you to everyone that sent me a question!**

@stevelivingston 

Great concept!

Here's a question: if you were starting out on Steemit again today, what 1-3 things would you do the same (or differently) to achieve the success you have achieved here on this platform?

* Answer: 

I would definitely share original content, my own pics and be a bit personal if I started out today. I feel like I’ve managed to do this all along.

I would’ve posted more frequently if I started out now, and I would’ve followed more people. (I’m working in that last one as we speak.) 


@qberry

Make that two. I'd love to get some advice or what you have learned about steemit. And, where to find that hat!

* Answer: 

I’ve learned that in order for anyone to care about your content, you have to care about them! 

A friend make it to me. I just sent him the logo, the colors and instructions And I paid about 20 USD for it.

The infamous hat! 

@oyvindsabo

Considering how many food posts you've written, you might have already answered this: Do you like tea? And in which case, what tea? I just started liking tea, and I would love some recommendations.

* Answer:

I love tea. I drink it every day. I am a huge fan of chai, green tea and loose fruit teas. 
But what I drink even more is boiled water with nothing in it, every morning. Sounds strange, I know. But I feel great after and I like it. Oddly enough.
Sometimes I put a slice of fresh ginger in it, some lemon and honey or tumeric powder. And sometimes all of the above.

@slimanepro

Beautiful .. wonderful initiative
What attracts your followers in your publications? Tips
Thanks for the post

* Answer: 

Thank you. I might not be the right person to ask, but I hope/think it is the fact that I share personal stuff (not private) and create original content. I also spend a lot of time engaging with my followers. I read their posts, I reply to almost all comments and I vote for other people too.
This question post is one part of getting to know my followers, and help them get to know me.


@truce

ok first of all, where did you get that amazing hat?

* Answer: 

My friend made it for me! I love it. 
He owns a clothing store that also create custom made things.

@alokzoom 

Hi @susanne, I am @alokzoom from Indonesia. I feel happy to know people like you. actually i can not speak english. this comment I translate first. but I feel happy to be friends with people far from my country even though only through the Maya world.
Your photo is very beautiful, where is it?

* Answer:

Likewise! Your English is fine and I can easily understand the translation. The picture was taken in Suldal, Norway. 


@s3rg3

I don't know Norway but I know Sweden a bit and especially Gothenburg. Can you tell me what the biggest difference between Norway and Sweden is for you?

* Answer: 

The biggest difference for me is probably the prices. 
When I got to Sweden for work, I laugh at how cheap everything is there compared to Norway. Especially the food and drinks. The nature, the people and the weather is pretty similar tho!

@gap2545

if an unstoppable object collides with an immovable one that would happen? 

* Answer:

I think Big Bang number two would happen? 

My dad suggest a nuclear reaction that never stops. 😂

@heyitshaas

I know I need to be more specific and there are many factors, but what it your favorite continent in the world and why? Make it to travel to and to retire when you are old. Looking forward to the post!

* Answer: 

I am in love with North America and would love to explore Canada more. 

And for retirement I might go back to Africa and the Seychelles. 

@susanli3769

You seem to travel a lot. How do you manage that in life when you have to be on the motion all the time?

* Answer: 

Sometimes it can be challenging, like last week when I didn’t have time to wash my clothes between two trips, because I had just five hours in my own bed before I had to go to the airport again. It resulted in some weird outfits in trip number two, haha! 

And sometimes I miss my family. But all in all I love this life.

@michaelcabiles

Hello @susanne! 😊 I am Michael a Filipino who is living in Thailand for 10 years. 31 years old. Married to @thidaratapple, a wonderful and great mother of our two lovely boys. 😊 I'd been here at Steemit since Mid January and it's great to here! 😊

Here's my question for you..😊

If you had a chance to travel in the Asian countries, what country would you prefer to go first?😊

* Answer: 

I’ve only been to Singapore and Malaysia, so I definitely need to see more of Asia. Vietnam and Bali is definitely on my list. And maybe I’ll see you in the Filipines? 

@toocurious

Hi Susanne, nice post. My question is more of a kind invitation, I saw that you upvoted a post of mine, so you probably know we are roadtripping in Norway with our bus. So, I wanted to invite you to join us for a couple of days if you have the time :). If that is not possible, I would like to ask what your favourite places are in Norway? Cheers!

* Answer:

Too bad I missed you when i was just up north. I’d love to meet up with you guys, maybe in the summer when you come back? Thank you!!

My favorite places other than my hometown, Stavanger, is Hardanger and Svolvær.

This is a fun post! Great idea, @susannne...

So here's my question: What are you most challenged by, and what are you best prepared to accomplish?

* Answer:

Procrastination, by far! If someone can sure that for me, I’ll be forever I’m debt to them.

I think I am very prepared to accomplish  anything related to my business goals, as I usually never give up. 

@soldier 
This is a great idea!
Where is your favorite place on earth?

* Answer: 

That must be where I am right now, my family cabin in Norway. There’s just so many childhood memories from here. Australia is pretty amazing too.

If I ask you to give me that your beautiful steemit cap, will you give me without complaining.. Secondly, what are the great challenges you have suffered from on this platform.

Nope! But I would be happy to help you get one too! 
Hmm.. understanding how the reputation works. That seems to be rather complex in my mind! 
I still don’t fully understand it.
