What is your blog about?
About my lifestyle, my outfits, my life, my expiriences, everything what might be interested for me in that moment. Will keep the theme open :)

Is this your first blog?
Yes it is. In my age it´s not that easy with all this technical stuff. Younger people are grown and handle it much more playful. But I will give it a chance, try it and hope it will get better every day.

When did you start your current blog?
I started in March 2013. I was thinking about it for months.. should I.. or better not.. But I had luck, a few very nice blogger friends supported me and so I dared.

What made you do it?
Other bloggers was so inspiring for me and one day it was not more enough only to comment on their blogs. I had so much to say and to show.

What was your first blog post about?
It was a little bit – hello here I am – with the title: yes I can!

What do you think is the most useful tool to you as a blogger?
Patience, perseverance, dedication

Do people in your real life know about your blog?
Yes

If yes, has your blog helped you career wise?
I´m not in fashion business but it helped my self confidence and so you can say.. it helped me a little bit to keep a very good job.

What has been the one thing (blog post, project, etc) that you have been really proud of?
When I look at my older posts and than at my current one.. there are worlds apart. Everyone told me that my blog is getting better every day. So I think it´s my phantasy and the will to make it.

Where do you see your blog in a year?
I hope I don´t quit in the meantime and hope my locations and my images will get much better.

What do you wish you knew when starting your blog?
My only wish was that people out there like to meet me on my blog, to be interested of all that what I´m doing.

What do you wish you know more about now?
Wish that there will be much more traffic. I have discovered so many beautiful, breathtaking and lovely blogs all around the world and hope that there are also many people who will be so glad to discover MY blog.

How do you keep motivated to post?
I´m a very positive person and I am always in very good mood, so this have never been a big problem for me. Sometimes I lie in bed trying to sleep and my brain don´t want to stop thinking about the next post. When I get up in the morning I know already the half of the blog content. Everything else happens in the moment.

Anything else you’d like to add?
There are so many young ladies blogging. I wish that many more ladies in my age (or older) try blogging and we can share our thoughts, experiences and everything what will touch us in our daily routine.

One last thing: I know my English could be better, BUT I´m learning! Hope you don´t bother if I had made some mistakes answering all these questions. I tried to do it alone, without the online translator :)
