My experience as a blogger

I like reading other people's blogs but I had never thought about starting my own blog. It was nice to talk about a topic, in this case traveling cheap, from my point of view.

Writing a post might be tricky sometimes because you have to tell things that are true, give recognition to webs or photos you mention and all that making it interesting and catching.

Overall, I really like the experience of writing my own blog although I don't think I will start a new one in a near future.

Best online work 2015



There are plenty of websites that can help you to save money when it comes to traveling. All of them try to look for the best prices and bargains online but, there is one website that I would consider the best one: Kayak.es


This web allows the users to compare between the different offers of flights, hotel stays and so on. It is totally free, there is no need to register and it is really fast.


 
I think that Kayak.es is by far the best online work for traveling cheap among the dozens of websites you can find out there. Triavago and expedia are other examples of these type of webs that are also really good but don't give the users the same facilities Kayak.es does.

Being a blogger for me



       I had always wanted to start a blog, but I dind´t know how to do it properly. In this subject I increase my knowledge about blogs and social media, starting my participation in bloggers' life.

Being a blogger had helped me become more responsible and authoritarian. Knowing that everyday few people may read your blog helps you to be more responsible and careful in your work.
Apart from this blog, I had started another one as a hobby with one friend, a fashion blog called Pizzico di glamour that we will continue posting as soon as we can.

Here I leave you my links' posts about traveling cheap around Europe,

Social travelers

Since the creation of the first social network, hundreds of different one have been stablished. They include topics such as food, sports, and of course, traveling.

There are lots of different kinds of social networks that could be really useful at the moment of traveling, and I´m going to talk about them. 

  • In Pinterest, there is a feature which has been created just for travel. It´s called Pinterest Pins. They all have a location, and it is really useful for making short journeys. Then, you can share all your pins with friends, and let them comment their own ideas or add more pins.
  • Download the Foursquare app from your mobile phone, and directly see what people think about restaurants around you. You won't have to search for a good looking restaurant anymore. Trust me, that after having visited two museums and a cathedral, you will want to eat as sooner as possible, and this app will help you finding the best options
  • Instameet, is a tool made for the community of Instragram. What this app does, is create meetings for enthusiasts of the well know picture sharing network, Instagram. Making new friends in different cities with the same passion as you has never been so easy!

8 typical aspects of a cheap traveler

Traveling is something that almost everyone does. It doesn´t matter if you are rich and want to spend incredible amounts of money, or you want to travel expending the least amount of money, which doesn't mean bad holidays.

Today, I will be trying to make a summary of the most typical characteristics of a cheap traveler.


  1. It has around 18 to 35 years
  2. Studies, or has started working not a long time ago
  3. Usually travels in company, for example a group of friends
  4. Trips are longer than usual
  5. Prefers to have a good night with his or her friends in a hostal than sleeping in a luxurious hotel
  6. Doesn´t mind taking public transport
  7. Researches the web trying to find great bargains. 
  8. Usually travels with a backpack with necessary clothing instead of a suitcase

Main points of a good blogger



This month in multimedia classes I’ve got the opportunity of participate in a little project; the creation of a blog. At first I wasn’t very excited about it because I got not idea on writing and posting every week opinions or information about something.

The following weeks I found it easier and funny because I realize that putting information about how to travel around Europe in a cheap way can help quite a lot of people. So, it’s not only about posting information, also it is about helping people in a different and honestly way because you talk and give advice through your personal experience.

Furthermore, writing a blog it’s a responsible work because you have to be honest. Also you might be a responsible blogger because if you have followers, they expect you to post every week. So I think that if you want to create a blog you have to spend time on it and doing it with dedication.

A noob blogger


This has been my first experience in blogging so far, and I quite have liked it. I would never thought that I was going to be posting written content regularly, and now I don't discard to continue doing it by myself. 

Blogging on a regular basis requires commitment and dedication. You have to organize yourself and take it as a hobby, if you want success. You don't have to take it as an obligation, because you won't put the same effort on it, and the result will surely be poorer. For a successful blog, time and investigation is needed. You can't publish any news without having checked its veracity. 

I have also learnt some tricks to make people care abut my blog, and also come things that would prevent me from receiving fines, such as avoiding plagiarism.
