Hey guys, my name is Jack James and welcome to a post in this post we will be doing an interview with a travel blogger called Wander with Laura. Her blog posts are really good and I am so happy she answered me back. I read her blog posts and it makes me think what I am doing with my life. So lets get into it:

1.What made you start blogging?

I’ve always loved writing and had personal ‘diary’ blogs privately for years. Then, one day in uni, I decided that it would be a great move for my CV to start a real blog.  The first thing I wrote about was beauty before moving onto lifestyle and then travel!

2. What is your favourite thing about blogging and why?

Having a creative output is amazing and really challenges you to work at something for yourself. As part of my Marketing jobs, I’ve used social media, websites and similar tools to blogging but this is something that you can make completely your own.

3. What bit of blogging dont you like and why?

I find blogging tough these days. I started almost five years ago and since then, the world has become so much more professional with bloggers earning huge tons of money. You ‘need’ proper equipment and knowledge to get started and make headway and this can be discouraging compared to the days where anybody had a shot.

 4. What do you like doing in your spare time?7

In my spare time – aside from blogging – you’ll find me watching films, reading and eating (a lot). My friends mean the world to me and I spend as much time with them as possible!

 5.What would make you stop blogging?
I came close to throwing the towel in on my blog for the reasons above. But at the end of the day, having the memories to look back on and experience will be an amazing thing so Wander with Laura lives on!
6. What is your favourite social media and why?
 
 Instagram is my favourite. For travel blogging especially, this allows you to paint a picture of your journeys so I can’t get enough of it. My handle is @wanderingwithlaura by the way 😉
 
7. If you could give one piece of advise to a new blogger what would it be?
 Try not to get bogged down with the competition. Stay true to yourself and don’t force yourself to embrace anything that doesn’t feel right.
8. What is your favorite country, you have ever been to and why?
  This is a really hard one! I’m visiting so many new countries over the next few months that this could change but for city breaks, Krakow in Poland is brilliant – affordable and beautiful! Switzerland has scenery unlike anything I’ve seen and I’m currently in Indonesia that has also captured my heart. Sorry, I just can’t choose!

  1. Great interview! I agree with the points made about how the huge bloggers can make us feel discouraged so it’s good to not to compare ourselves with others 🙂 x
