I started this blog when I became a mum as a way to share photographs and our travels with family across the globe. I found my purpose in blogging through becoming an expat and moving abroad. Something I had not expected were all the opportunities that would come from having a blog. One of which is being introduced to an amazing online community, Girl Gone International and becoming the Adventure & Travel editor for their online magazine. For me it was finally finding a community to where I felt I belong with like minded individuals who love being a citizen of the world.

Each city has it own Community Manager. The girls that come to our events are English speaking and internationally minded who want to meet like-minded friends, gain a foothold in their new city or build a strong network. Alternatively they have just come home from being abroad and want to keep in with an international circle.

So cool! Great post Bonnie and thanks for sharing. I had never heard of this before....sadly the closest to me is Frankfurt but still interesting.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely check out GGI through their social media sites. Its a great way to connect even if you cannot make a meet up.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool that you got that gig essentially from blogging. Sounds like a dream. It's always great to get new endeavors out of blogging, I've gotten a few too here and there. If you are ever looking for writers for the mag, drop me a message, I'd love to write for this mag and I hope I win a copy so I can check it out! Congrats!
