Mothers of AngelsĀ questions and answers
1. What is your favourite blog and why?
I really canāt choose one favourite blog out of all the beautiful blogs I follow. They are all so beautiful. It would be mean to choose just one favourite.
2. How did you feel when you got your first follower?
I really couldnāt believe it because I thought nobody would read my blog posts or follow me. Hahah, I was surprised and was so happy. I thought maybe my blog would grow and it definitely did! Iām so thankful for all my lovely followers who read, like and comment my blog posts. It means the world to me š
3. Has blogging made you a better person in some way?
It definitely made me a better person because I feel like bloggers arenāt that competitive. Of course, we all wanna have an awesome blog with many followers but numbers arenāt that important. I came to realize that we all respect each other, support each other and love each other. I really miss that in todayās world so this definitely makes me a better person. I compare myself less to other people now which makes me a better person.
4. If someone told you that you could only make 5 more posts on your blog what would you write about?
I would write about why self love is so important, what it means to be a feminist, a travel post, why mental health is as important as physical health and how single isnāt that bad at all. These are some main subjects which I really like to write about in the future.
5. If you didnāt blog what would you use that spare time doing?
I would use that time to enjoy nature more even though I still have a life behind my blog hahah. I love reading, writing, singing, surfing, photography, travelling, listening to music and spending time with my family and friends.
6. What do you hope your followers will gain from reading your blog?
I hope my followers will get inspired and happy by reading my blog. I hope that with writing my thoughts and feelings down it will help them to feel less alone and know that I will always support them and be there for them. I just want to spread peace, love and happiness through my blog because those are the most important things in life ā¤š
7. I think blogging has therapeutic qualities, do you?
Yes, I think blogging definitely has some therapeutic qualities. I love the support I get when I write my thoughts and feelings down. I also love to read other blog posts and know that Iām not crazy thinking for example that Iām not good enough because everybody feels that way sometimes. Blogging definitely makes me grow as a person and heals my wounds. Writing is such a beautiful form of healing. I encourage anyone to write š
ElsieĀ questions & answers
1. If you had to stay in one location for the rest of your life and never travel far from it where would it be?
I would have chosen Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Mexico and Brasil because I really want to visit these beautiful places but those are also dangerous places and you canāt walk at night just like I do in Spain so I wouldnāt wanna to live there. I would of course choose Spain, the country where I live right now. I feel so safe here. Itās just such a beautiful country because it has so many different regions with so many different landscapes such as dessert, beach, mountain…. You can find anything in Spain. I already visited many awesome places in Spain but I canāt wait to visit many more beautiful places here. I also love the people, the sunshine and the delicious food: tapas so much! š I canāt get enough of it.
2. What is the first thing that you feel after you upload a post to your blog (E.g, excitement/it depends/nerves etc.)?
Iām always excitement if people will actually read my blog posts, will like it and get inspired. Sometimes I also feel like a bit of nerves if they will understand my blog posts and it will not cause any harm because I never wanna hurt someoneās feelings.
3. How would you describe blogging to a person who has heard the word āblogā before but has no idea what it really means?
I would describe blogging as a way of sharing your deepest inner thoughts and feelings of a subject of for example anything whatās happening in your life. Blogging is a way of writing about anything in life and a way of making connection with people and with this world. It’s all about getting inspired.
4. If you were only allowed to blog about one topic what would you choose?
I would choose self love because itās just so important to love ourselves in this society which constantly tries to change us. We are perfect and beautiful the way we are š
5. What is your favourite season and which season is it where you are now?
My favourite season is definitely Summer. Life is better in the Summer. Life is just so much easier. I love swimming in the ocean, swimming in the swimmingpool, wearing cute dresses, surfing and eating a delicious ice cream with my friends and family. Right now itās Spring in Spain even though it doesnāt feel that away š Itās still a bit cold and have rained a lot this week. Next week, they announce 22 degrees or even more. Letās pray for Spring to come š¼š·š
6. Do you think there is anything different about the you in real life and the you that is portrayed through your blog?
No, I donāt think there is a difference. I write about my feeling and thoughts and other things. I always stay true to myself, I’m sensitive, I’m vulnerable and I’m alwayst honest because thatās the way Iām and the way I want to be portrayed through my blog. I always want to make a real connection and real friendships in the blogging community. I would never try to impress other people with a different me or a fake me.
7. What was the last book you read?
Well, Iām still reading this book. Itās a Spanish book which is called āToxic emotionsā by Bernardo Stamateas. Itās a self help book and it definitely helps with dealing with anxiety in life. It has some awesome tips and stories.
8. 5 years ago did you think you would be where you are now in life?
No, I donāt think so because 5 years ago I was going through a bad break up and thought that I could never be happy again in life. Now, Iām much happier than before and Iām still growing in life. Every experience will make you grow as a person and will give you some important life lessons and wisdom.
9. Do you have a specific place that you go to type out blog posts or do you feel comfortable enough to do them anywhere?
I always do it at home on my laptop because thatās the place I love to do it the most. If I would do it in a cafĆ© or bar I would think that people are looking at me about what I’m writing about even thought it might not be true but I just want to do it at home. At home I feel safe, loved and peaceful to write my blog posts in calm.
10. If there was a movie made about your life which celebrity would play you?
I really donāt know but I think a celebrity who would be sensitive, caring and honest like Iām.
11. Do you have any pets? If no, then do you want any? If yes then what kind of a niche do you think their blog would be if they had one?
No, I donāt have any pets. I love cats and dogs but I would prefer to have a cat. I donāt think I would have any because Iām travelling a lot and besides my parents donāt want any. If I would live alone, I also donāt think I would have enough time to care for a pet because of travelling so much.
