Today is the 9-year anniversary of the day I started the A Lady in London blog. Time has flown since I quit my hedge fund job, got a visa, and arrived in England wondering where life would take me. And it’s no wonder. In 9 years of blogging I’ve traveled all over the world and seen as much of the UK as I can. But I couldn’t have done that without you.
Blog Anniversaries
I write a blog post every year on the anniversary of the founding of the blog. At 6 years I wrote the story of how I moved to London and started A Lady in London, at 8 years I wrote about how I took a risk and made the leap to full-time blogging in 2010.
9 Years of Blogging
But this year I want to write about you. Because without you I wouldn’t be blogging. Or traveling. Or maybe even in London. Without you, I wouldn’t be living my dream.
So this year I want to say thank you. Thank you for reading, for subscribing, for following, for commenting, for purchasing my eBooks and attending my classes. Thank you for your kind words of support. Your emails. Your time to fill out my reader surveys and vote for me in blogging awards.
Thank you for your likes on Instagram, your shares on Facebook, your retweets on Twitter. Thank you for watching my snaps on Snapchat, and for pinning my photos on Pinterest. I spend a lot of time creating, editing, and sharing on A Lady in London and its social media channels, and it’s encouraging to know that you’re enjoying it.
Sometimes it’s hard to keep it all going. I feel burned out from traveling, or discouraged by negative comments, or worried that I’m not doing enough or doing well enough. But then I hear from you, I see your likes and comments, shares and views, and it motivates me to keep going and to keep getting better at everything that goes into the blog.
So thank you for a great 9 years of blogging, and here’s to an exciting future for us ahead.
