You Never Saw This Coming

SURPRISE!!!! The English major, who is about to go on a three month trip to England, is writing a travel blog (bet you never even saw that one coming).  I started blogging over the summer, just to sort of get myself into the habit of doing it, and I discovered that my life is remarkably boring and incredibly unexciting.  However, living in England is going to change this girl’s boring life into a grand adventure – or at the very least, an expensive adventure.  Don’t worry, I’ve done my research.  A travel blog is supposed to be a documentation of the author’s experiences through writing, pictures, and other forms of media.  Because I really want to do this thing correctly, I did some reading on the subject of travel blogs to see what a successful one looks like.  After reading many different articles (“How to Blog”, “Blogging for Beginners”, “How to Write a Good Travel Blog”…….) I decided to just ignore those step-by-step instructions and figure it out on my own!   This is what I tend to do in most real life situations. 

So, with very little blogging experience under my belt, here’s my promise to you, dear reader:  Whatever I write about in this travel blog will be cool, funny, awesome, and interesting to somebody somewhere in one way or another (this person may or may not be you – in fact, it will probably be my mother most of the time).  My flight leaves tomorrow evening.  This will be the start of my lovely adventure, so stay tuned!
