Hello Steeminas! My name is Miroslav and @thebigmile is only one of my many nicknames. Other nicknames are Igor, Rok etc...
I am from Zagreb Croatia, and I have been a member of this community for approximately 2 months now.

I have been introduced to Steemit by my family members, including my daughter @matejka13 , my wife @thelittlemile , my sister´s daughters @rita0404 @jele.mala , and my sister´s son in law Oleg @olegw . Oleg was the first one who promoted Steemit so consistentlly and so enthusiastically. 
As you can imagine - we´re all crazy Steemians. I have a steady 8 to 5 office job, and Steemit seems like an excellent place to get to know people around the world and share our thoughts and experiences.

I grew up in Zagreb, and this is my picture when I was very very young.

I have many different interests in life but on this blog I will write mostly about music, travel, food, beer, and graffiti (street art). 

I don´t cook every day but when I do, I really enjoy myself. I love to cook for my friends and my family. I love different cuisines and different styles but seafood is my favorite. Recently I prepared this Prawns Risotto.

Most of my photos about street art are taken in Novi Zagreb (southern suburbs of Zagreb)

I visited many countries on several continents but there are many more on my list to visit. I enjoy traveling around the world with my wife Maja @littlemile. I also enjoy slow and “laid back” type of travel. I am not very eager to see tourist attractions, but I love to mingle with the locals and taste local food and drinks. I also love “people-watching”. Ohh I wish we were in Thailand now :)

Music is another big love and passion. I passionately listen to rock music since I was a kid. Classical rock from 60´s and 70´s, punk rock, new wave, through modern music. I believe music has a healing element and brings a joy to our life. Just few days ago I bought a ticket for June openair festival “InMusic” that is held every year near Jarun lake in Zagreb. This year´s lineup include Queens of the Stone Age, Nick Cave, David Byrne and Alice in Chains. I can´t wait for June to come!!
