The Versatile Blogger Award!

Versatile Blogger

I woke up this morning and had quite some notifications on my phone from my WordPress app…

Turned out I have been nominated for the Versatile Blogger Award by Evangelina from https://miles-away.blog/. She is hugely enthusiastic, and a great blogger, her photography is coming along very nicely. Please check out her blog.

To be completely honest, I had no idea what this award was.. so I quickly Googled it. As first it looked like a silly chain mail thing, but it really isn’t. I found this very useful!

The award is a great way for bloggers to connect, and for new bloggers to get some expose and recognition for their hard work. Its also a great way to find bloggers that share the same interests as you.

Evangelina has been hugely supportive of my blog in recent months. Its really great for have positive feedback about the posts you write, and the photos you take. Its something that I have underestimated. A Huge thanks to Evangelina for the nomination! I appreciate the recognition.

My Blog Journey

I started my site because I wanted somewhere to showcase my photography and share my experiences. I used to post my pictures to Facebook, but I really wanted somewhere a bit more…. Classy. So I made a few pages, some albums and an about page, and it remained like that for a long time. After moving to Germany I found a lot more time and will power to push my blog to the next level. I started to blog regularly and my site is now at a stage where I can say that I’m happy with it – but still lots to do!

As I posted more, I got more feedback, and this is really cool. For all the nervous bloggers out there, I encourage you to keep posting, keep improving your site, and good things will come.
