Before I started blogging, I heard a lot of talk about how it was truly a “conversational medium.” I didn’t buy it at first, I figured it would be like talking to a wall, but after a few months I’ve come around. I originally started writing for family and friends, and now it has grown from a humble personal blog to encompass my thoughts on travel and living abroad.
I’ve gotten comments from people all over, either offering advice on top of mine or asking for more of it. It’s been a blast building up subscribers and engaging the people that find my writing interesting. I’ve met local people in Buenos Aires through my blogging, and now know a large network of expats all around South America. My blog has also directly influenced the jobs I’m working down here, I never imagined I’d get to work writing travel articles and itineraries. Not bad for something I originally figured I’d update maybe once a week.
For travelers blogs are a great way to keep in touch with friends back home, wherever that may be. People always want to know what I’m up to down here, and I’d love nothing more than to write a lengthy personal email describing my shenanigans, but the fact is I simply don’t have enough time in the day. Enter the blog. Tell all your friends about it, update it when you can, and everyone has a convenient one-stop-shop for Planet You. And you’re free to enjoy your vacation, sojourn, expedition, or whatever it is that caused you to up and travel.
