When I suggested that we start a family blog about our family “gap year,” the kids mocked me: “A blog?! Who even reads blogs anymore?” Apparently, people who are not teenagers…since it’s been my friends and acquaintances who have asked about one. Besides keeping our friends and family up-to-date on our escapades, I hope it will help prompt us to reflect on our experiences and help keep this precious year from becoming just one big blur. Maybe it can also be a resource for other people planning a similar adventure. Plus, maybe it will help me reach my long-standing dream of becoming an international social media influencer?! 😉
