Why I started Blogging (and why you should too)

Image
Hello everyone! Today I will be telling you why I started my blog site Carly's View and my Instagram associated with the site @carlylauren_ . It's very cliche, but ever since I was a child, I've always loved reading, writing and creating; whether that is writing my own story, capturing memories through photography or video or spending hours on arts and crafts. I also love to verbally communicate my ideas and share my experiences with others. Basically, I love to talk a lot, but I do also love to listen. Therefore, I thought that blogging would be the best way for me to create a space to do a mixture of written and verbal communication, whilst also expanding my personal brand within a marketing platform, which would in-turn help me in my career. I love building friendships and finding common likes and dislikes with others within the online community.

Hello everyone! I've always loved challenging myself, pushing myself out of my comfort zone and making lifelong memories which I will cherish forever. The daring Leo within me loves making bucket lists and I want to achieve as much as I possibly can in my life. So today's blog post consists of my top 10 life experiences so far, I'm sure I've left something out and if I remember it I will definitely be posting it on my Instagram, so keep an eye out for that one! :) I am hoping to experience so much more in my life as I believe that this is only the beginning.

Theme Parks Theme Parks had to be the first experience that I mentioned on this post as it's possibly my favourite of all. I love the overall experience; you've got exciting rides, yummy treats, fun theming, great food, challenging games, cute souvenirs (which I am obsessed with) and

Birthday Surprises - Lockdown Edition

Hello everyone! I love birthdays, not just my own, but I love giving presents and making sure that those that I love feel spoiled on their special day. It is only one day of the year, and no amount of money in the world can match the feeling when you receive a personal and thoughtful gift. Therefore, my list is not filled with expensive, materialistic products, but with experiences and gestures that show the recipient that you care. Obviously if you are able and are eager to spend large amounts of money on your family and friends then I'm not saying that is a bad option, I'm just providing you with alternatives or things that you can get your loved one alongside your gift. Hope you enjoy! 1. Send them a thoughtful gift You could send your loved one a present through the post. Possibly a subscription for their favourite magazine, beauty box or flowers etc, so that they get a gift every month for how ever long you want, or even all year round. You could buy the classic flowers
