Why I Am Getting Into Blogging

My name is Calli, I’m a young female living in Vancouver, British Columbia with a passion for travel, food, story telling and exploring. At the beginning of each new year I set goals for my self to accomplish that year, things like save a certain amount of money or practice yoga every day. So far, the yoga every day goal isn’t going so well; but, to be fair I just went from renting a full apartment to renting a bedroom so there’s still a lot of boxes in the way and organizing to be done. One of my goals was to “find more things that make me happy” and these things couldn’t be people or relationships. This meant finding some new hobbies, something productive and something social. Not like knitting which I’d previously taken up. Not that knitting is not productive, I now have a lovely set of coasters for a coffee table that I don’t have (because I’m renting a bedroom.) This needed to be something different, something big and exciting. I sat down and started to think about all the things I like to do and what I wished I did more. I love cooking and baking, discovering my city, spending time outside, finding new restaurants, traveling, taking photos while doing all these things and most of all telling everyone about it. Then I realized, I get in trouble a lot at work for talking too much. My grandma did always tell me I had a knack for storytelling even before I could speak actual words. So, I decided, why not start a blog? It would be somewhere I could share my thoughts, stories, adventures and photos with everyone. So yeah, I’m really looking forward to learning how all this works and getting to share it!
