Why do you blog?
Writing has always been a form of therapy for me. Since I was ten years old, I kept a diary and wrote down whatever I was feeling. I suppose that’s the first reason I blog: it’s an outlet for my whirling thoughts and a way to prevent my brain from becoming a chaotic mess. Another reason is to express my creativity. Aside from writing, I’ve been obsessed with photography for as long as I can remember. I’m definitely not a professional, I just find a lot of joy in capturing beautiful moments and sharing them with the world. Lastly, and most importantly, I blog because I want to help people in some way, whether that’s through writing a great travel guide that makes it easier for someone to plan their trip or by sharing some of the lessons I’ve learned on the road. I hope to inspire people to be fearless in their pursuit of a happy and fulfilled life. Simply put, I blog because it allows me to combine all of the things I’m passionate about.
What prompted you to start blogging?
A year ago I was feeling quite bitter about how my life had turned out.
I didn’t care about anything I was doing and felt stuck in a vicious cycle of negativity. It took me a long time, but one day I finally decided I’d had enough. I quit everything, hopped on a flight and started backpacking through Central-America (mostly Costa Rica). As soon as I left, I felt the urge to document my journey, so I started my blog EMYSWAY.
At first, I treated it like an online travel diary, where I spoke candidly about my adventures on the road. However, as I delved deeper into the blogging world, I realized I had a lot more to share. I began creating travel guides for different destinations, as well as the occasional lifestyle post. I enjoyed it so much it became my goal to turn my blog into my business, which is what I’m still trying to do now. However, if I’m completely honest, my main reason for starting a blog is probably to find a community of like-minded people, which is something that’s been lacking from my life for quite some time now.
