Solarus Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 Hi everyone! My name is Blaine. Very excited to finally register here and get to talk about this exciting new hobby I'm just starting out with. I'm originally from Canada, though I moved down to Northern California a couple of years ago. Despite being 37 years old, my first time at a Disney park was when I visited Disneyland last year, and I fell in love. I was both surprised and excited that pin trading was such a big thing and that there are 10s of thousands of them available to trade (that's a recipe for a fun hobby). I bought about 20 or so pins to start, and I'm excited to trade proper during my trip to Disney World next year. In the meantime, I'm very excited to talk to everyone, learn from the pros, and maybe engage in a few trades before the big trip! 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
