I get inspired by so many different things which I imagine we all do.

At 5 am this morning I was scrolling through instagram I scrolled passed Daynabolden IG post with her daughter and I had a flash back of remembering when I started following her and also why I started blogging.

When I started blogging I didn’t really know what I was doing but Instagram was popping fr and when I saw blogs I really didn’t see that many dark skin black women with blogs ( maybe just cause I didn’t know them) but with Instagram becoming popular I definitely followed Dayna Bolden. She is a lifestyle blogger that focuses on fashion, family and fitness now because I think when she started out she was doing beauty. I believe she still does that now but sometimes your content changes over the years.

I always loved to write and always saw so many blogs but I never really saw one about studying abroad so I created it. Lol

I was really excited to write it and share it and put it out there, I even made a 30 sec YouTube video with all my pictures.

I loved the idea of expressing myself online, since I was young I have enjoyed writing from stories to songs.

When I started my blog it was on Wix it was to talk about different things I was interested in one of my first post was when I studied abroad in Trinidad and Tobago.

I also talked about finishing my last year of college and going to grad school to traveling to Florida and California.

Since I hadn’t seen any other study abroad blogs I decided to interview other women who looked like me who studied abroad and shared there stories on my blog all while giving travel tips.

August 2017 I started a travel Instagram called AlieshiasAdventures because I wanted fknshare my travels while in grad school and than I took a break from the blog to focus on my Instagram page. I would share on my page every time I went somewhere and even vlog my experiences.

Quickly learning from Instagram that I wasn’t the only one traveling had me inspired to meet people but I then noticed how people in the travel industry could be snobby and think they are better then others( that’s not my forte)

I believe traveling is important because I grew up traveling and i just want to show that you can travel. Although this is where it gets tricky at when people here adventures they think travel but I always say life is an adventure and what I mean by that is even when I’m not traveling I am on an adventure. Whether moving, starting a new job, graduating or launching a product these are my adventures

I have learned that it’s okay to pivot but sometimes it’s hard to shift when your audience knows you for one thing and not another so let me reintroduce myself.
