Two years of blogging, my first interview and so many of you!

What a week this has been! While I was busy trying to find some balance in everything that is going on in my life and in the world, I haven’t had a chance to dedicate a blog post for each of these amazing milestones that I’ve recently reached, so I will just group them all under one single post.

Two years of blogging:

My baby blog is now two years old, and I can’t believe that it was already two years since I have published my very first post: Four Days in Budapest! It is probably one of the longest blog posts but it contains some of my favourite pictures ever that I have taken during my trips. I remember wanting to start off this blog with this city which really stole my heart.

I feel like many things have changed since then, and I am very happy of the journey I have gone through with my blog! From months of publishing nothing to very productive ones until now, I am really happy that despite some set backs I managed to keep it pretty much alive!

As my blog is entering its third year, I would say that I mainly wish to publish blog posts more regularly and to stay in this wonderful blogging community, where I constantly discover new places and new things to do!

My very first interview:

When Andrew reached out to me asking if he could interview me for his blog, I felt incredibly grateful and honoured to have this chance, and enthusiastically replied to the very interesting questions he had prepared for me.

You can check out the interview here! Also, make sure to check out Andy’s blog. He publishes many things travel-related and interviews of so many fantastic bloggers. Thank you again, Andy!

More and more followers:

My blog reached 200 followers very recently, and even though it is absolutely not something that I actually keep track of, I still feel incredibly happy about it as it just seems such a big number! Of course, it is easier to reach that many people through a blog, especially since, if I had to give a speech in front of 200 people I would actually panic, but it still feels like a great achievement!

Of course, my blog was initially meant as something that I wanted to do for myself, but I feel extremely grateful to be part of this great community and to be able to reach so many people – and hopefully make them travel a bit through my posts!


So, if you are among the 200 that follow my blog: thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart!

    Juliette…so bene quanto sia complicato mantenere un blog attivo per tanto tempo…ma il tuo tocco femminile, gentile e solare fanno del tuo blog uno spazio di serenitΓ‘ e positivitΓ‘…continua e non mollare!
    Il mio blog lo tengo abbastanza abbandonato perchΓ© mi dispero per quanto complicato Γ© mantenere ed incrementare l’audience…poi, da quando scrivo per Dodho, mi sembra che lΓ­ Γ© piΓΊ facile essere “visibile”….e poi la fotografia…e poi il lavoro…complicato, davvero complicato!

    Complimenti a te e sai giΓ‘ che ti seguirΓ³ fino all’infinito!!!
    Ciao!

      Grazie… quante parole gentili! πŸ₯° Come dici, Γ¨ difficile mantener il blog ed aumentare l’audience, e di recente devo dire che non ho avuto molto tempo per occuparmene, spero di poterlo fare un po’ di piΓΉ d’ora in poi! 😊 Comunque quello che fai per Dodho Γ¨ super, e continua a pubblicare foto sul tuo blog perchΓ© sono sempre bellissime! 😊

    I read your interview with interest, it’s always fun to know a bit more about the people you read. I agree with you that the discipline of posting regularly is important but it should stay fun and pleasant, not a burden. Happy anniversary!

      Thank you so much! It has to stay fun and pleasant of course, though discipline is also very important, as you said, when the motivation is not really there or during busier times! 😊

    Congratulations, Juliette! Since following your blog, I’ve been nothing short of impressed with the positivity and zest for life you exude in each post. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed your travel posts, as well as personal insight into your life by the month. It’s awesome you’ve hit 200 follows; I can imagine you’ll hit 1000 follows sooner than you think!

    Congratulations on your two year blogiversary, being interviewed and reaching 200 followers, that’s certainly something to celebrate, Juliette. I am so glad I came across your blog as I adore your travel posts and monthly roundups.
    I loved reading your interview, and I have to agree with you – blogging is meant to be fun! You’ve got to enjoy blogging for it to be rewarding in any way. And when I say rewarding, I don’t mean financially; I mean whatever reward you’re looking for from blogging. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely day. Aiva πŸ™‚ xxx

    Congratulations on all these wonderful milestones! They are definitely worth celebrating. I wouldn’t know what life would be without this little corner of the Internet where we can share what we love and find like-minded people who are interested in these things too! Keep up the good work. πŸ˜€
