But What Will He Talk About This Time?

BOOM

I'm back baby!

After a long hiatus for my cooking blog (RIP Jon Cooks the World), an even longer hiatus for my travel blog (RIP You Dim Sum You Lose Some), and an even more embarrassingly long hiatus for my educational travel blog (RIP JonCarolineLindsayGermanyExtravaganza), it is time to begin again.

A lot has changed since those last, ill-fated attempts. There have been job changes, career changes, changes of address, and more.

Writing is something that I enjoy, and disgustingly enough I think I'm pretty good at it. Unfortunately, I am bad at keeping up with habits, and the only thing I like more than writing is procrastinating about writing. Maybe the 3rd (4th? 5th?) time is the charm. MY goal this time around is to be more consistent with content creation and less stringent with my themes.

So, what can you expect to see here? Some or all of the following:

• Travel posts -- I travel for work a lot now, and also still travel for fun. I'll tell you what I find

• Travel tips -- Sometimes I have opinions, and I'm arrogant enough to think you want them

• Cooking stuff -- I still like to cook and bake, and occasionally want to try to expand my pallet

• Orlando tips -- I live in a big cool city now, and exploring it kind of feels like traveling

• Travel Book/Movie/Television reviews -- Armchair globetrotting is the best I can do sometimes, but there is a ton of great material out there to explore

• Survivor stuff -- First of all, YES that show is still on, and second of all HOW DARE YOU. I love this darn show and may talk about it from time to time. It films in Fiji so IT'S RELATED IF I SAY IT'S RELATED, DEBORAH

• Videos/podcasts/picture posts -- Hey man, it's 2017 and now people expect this kind of shit. I've been told I have a face for podcasting, so why not give it a try

• Whatever the heckfire I want -- This is my blog, not yours Benjamin, don't tell me what I can and can't write about

My goal is to post AT LEAST once a week for now. I'm in a much better place mentally, physically, and financially this time around. The goal is to grow my writing skills and readership organically, and not have any short term goals in mind. If it takes me 3 years to get 20 readers, and they are all grandmas, friends' grandmas, and grandma's friends, then so be it.

So come along with me on a journey! Or don't, see if I care... (But really I do care)
