Aspects of Travelling || New Series!


I have shouted out to fellow travel bloggers for help to create a series on the many aspects of travelling to help people along their journeys and inspire others to start theirs. These aspects may include the feelings you get when travelling, the positives and negatives, favourite destinations, current hot spots etc. I thought of this idea because it's a good way to share a range of peoples views on a varied amount of subjects within travelling and to get everyone in the travelling community together discussing everyone's adventures.

Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started a Blog


I came onto the blogging scene as a blank canvas; not knowing how to work anything, the positives and negatives to blogging, how to blog (if there is a right way which I, personally, don't think there is) and what on earth I am going to write about. Obviously I should have done a little more research so I had a little head start before jumping right into the deep end. The only experience I had with blogging was reading other blogs and having friends who run their own blogs, does that even count as experience in blogging?

Admiring Bali Sunsets || Where's Best to Catch Them


Even though I was in Bali during the rain season, where it usually tends to be cloudy most days and, as assumed, rainy, I was lucky enough to have mostly clear days with the sun shining and blue skies. These days meant that the sunset would be visible from the beach, cliffs or somewhere on higher land. I took these days to venture out to the places where it is best to catch the breathtaking sunsets.

25 Things to do Before I am 25

Why 25 you ask? I think 25 is the age where you start to pursue your career, you're settling down and thinking about what the future holds. I'm still unsure what I want my future to look like but I have a good idea what I want to do before I start my "adulthood".

Apart from the obvious passport and boarding pass etc. there are some luxuries which you definitely DON'T get on some flights. I have started learning from mistakes in the past which have made my flights miserable and have some ESSENTIALS that I will have with me on flights now.

A reason why the blogging community is one of the best is because of the love and loyalty that is shared around. I am so happy to be a part of it and it's little things like being nominated for this award which can give you the motivation to keep going and showing your blog off to the world.

How I Gain More Followers on Social Media



Having followers on your blog social media accounts is one of the main priorities into making your blog's audience bigger and one step towards making your blog a success. You want people to see your blog, read it and talk about it. I have never been that focused on this aspect of my social medias but after reading many blog posts about why they are so important, I have recently been upping my game on all social media platforms to get my blog out into the big wide world. I am proud of my blog so why wouldn't I want it to be a success? I am only active on three social media platforms, some more than others, which is more than enough for me at the moment. It's so hard to keep track of them all!

Improving my Blog Photography

Apart from my travel posts, I never really put much effort into my photography. I would take about 30 photos in one day and use them for all my lifestyle posts hoping no one would realise. Recently, I have decided to become less lazy and make my photographs a little more appealing, not just on my blog but also my Instagram. I am starting to create a theme where they all look very bright and have a sharp contrast to make items in the photos stand out. I am going to explain how I have improved my photographs; it's quite simple but I thought certain processes may help yours.

Tackling University, a Job and Blogging


I properly started blogging weekly when I moved to China. Before that, it was once in a blue moon so I didn't really count it as 'blogging'. Once I had moved to China, I had university everyday for at least 4 hours, I started a teaching job which I did twice a week for 2 hours each time (plus an hour for travelling to the apartment) and I 'attempted' to blog weekly. As well as having all of these to do weekly, I also had my social life which, being in a new city and a massive city like Shanghai, was very hectic as there is so much to see and do.

My Favourite Blog Scheduling APPs

Blog promotion is very important to stay interacted with your audience, and on social media, and to up those statistics. It is very hard for some people to stay focused on this aspect of blogging, me being one of them, so I found out about 6 months ago that there were APPS/websites to help you with this.
Many of these APPS/websites have been created to help boost your promoting/advertising game with your website/blog. I am still on the hunt to find more after trying some but these are the ones I use on a regular basis.
