How my blog started?

I started this blog a little over a year ago. There were several factors that drove me to started this blog. I like reading other people blogs about cooking or baking and mainly travel stories. Being lazy, I used to bookmark recipe posts I wished to make one day – but over the time those links changed and I lost a lot of those bookmarks and never could find them again 🙁 Then one day, it just came to me why not I start my own blog – where I can actually post recipes that I have tried? I can share with my readers any tips I have pick up here and there and might be a benefit for others.

As for travel, as much as I love doing that, unfortunately we cannot afford doing it more often. What I love about travelling is mainly trying the local cuisines (as you can probably tell by now how much we love food hehehe). I would share our journeys along with how we felt about it.

Every now and then you will also see my posts on soap making or any odd simple craft projects or gardening attempts (or might I say, fails :P)

Two pieces of advice to new bloggers:

I definitely no expert and still learning to be better at this and here are my two cents. A super long post often confuses me, especially if it’s all writings. It is better to have few pictures and try not to write too long in a single post.

Another tip is that do blogging because you enjoy doing it. Remember that whilst it’s an online world where you barely know your fellow bloggers in person; it is always good to be kind and respective to others 🙂
