First Q&A!!

Hey guys!
Today i am going to be doing my very first Q&A post! I put a post up on Instagram and I got heaps and heaps of questions, so thanks!! Lets get into it:

Favourite things to do/hobbies? -@misssocean , @thestarsblg

I love swimming, taking photos, reading, working on my blog, exploring and going bike riding. 

 

Where do you want to travel to in the future? -@mintcandyblog , @vanilla.highlights , @utterlysophie and @basicallyjem_

 I would love to go to France, England and America. 

 

Favourite colour? -@mintcandyblog

I love neon orange!

 

Where do you like to go on the weekends? -@ayla_sanders

I live in Melbourne so I love exploring the city and walking around my area. 

 

Why do you like blogging? -@ayla_sanders , @utterlysophie

I like blogging because it means I can share my photography and writing with anyone who wants to see it. It is awesome to get feedback on my work! I also love being able to connect with other people who have similar interests to me!

What do you want to be when you're older? -@jasabellasworld , @utterlysophie

I'd love to be a professional photographer or an interior/graphic designer. 

Favourite sport? -@missbellablog , @ninaandkalikaa

I love swimming, tennis and netball.

Thoughts on the Australian Olympic uniform?-@missbellablog

I don't really like them at all, and to be honest, I think they look pretty old fashioned. The designers could have come up with something a bit more modern, and it was pretty disappointing to see them.

Fave Olympic sport? -@missbellablog

I love watching the swimming (especially), basketball and diving.

If you could say one thing to your younger self what would it be and why? -@utterlybrookelea

Be yourself! You are enough as a person :)

If you had to move to somewhere in the world where would you go? -@pickingthepetals_

Canada. The scenery looks amazing and the towns look super cool.

If you were prime minister for a day what law would you change? -@utterlysophie

I'd let all refugees into Australia and make sure they all had homes and were cared for, make sure there is marriage equality, and equality everywhere!

Frankie or Yen magazines? -@utterlysophie

Frankie! I do love both, but Frankie is just a bit better!

Favourite drink? -@lana.bergamasco

This is hard- I love all sorts of juices and smoothies but also chai lattes are really good!

Favourite thing about taking photos? -@lana.bergamasco

This sounds  pretty cliche but I love how you can capture a moment forever. It's just awesome! I also love how you can take photos of things from different perspectives and make things look different from real life.

What inspired you to start blogging and photography? -@alwaysimogen , @thriftytoppings

I have always loved photography- ever since I was about 6 and got my first little camera, I've been fascinated by the ability to capture a moment forever. I started blogging because my friend (who has sadly since stopped blogging) suggested that we start a blog together. I definitely have her to thank for the idea!

Fave animal? -@alwaysimogen , @misssocean

I love elephants :)

How you edit your photos? -@thestarsblg

A lot of my photos- especially the ones on my blog- are not edited, but for the others I use VSCO cam to change the brightness etc. and add filters. I also occasionally use Adobe Photoshop on my school laptop to edit my photos.

Favourite emoji? -@thestarsblg

I have a few: , 🏻, and

What do you love? -@eloiseorgill , @vanilla.highlights

I love food , taking photos, warm beach days and spending time with friends. 

What keeps you inspired? -@eloiseorgill , @thriftytoppings

I stay inspired by reading lots of blogs and watching YouTube videos. I think the best way to stay inspired is to surround yourself with things that inspire you and that you love.

Favourite book/movie? -@bellarosetannock

I love the Hunger Games and the Divergent series- both books and movies.

Why did you pick this theme of your account on Instagram? -@allycormack

The beach is just something that I have loved forever and I thought it would be a great theme to base my photos around. Also, when my friend and I first started this blog- we came up with the name just a bit beachy before we actually decided that we'd have a beach theme- so the theme is sort of based around the name.

How do you come up with inspiration for a new theme? -@simplesophiee

I don't really consider my Instagram and blog to have changing themes- I mostly just stick to one "beachy style" photography theme. I guess I just keep taking photos of things I see that I think would match my other photos.

How did you get a penpal ? -@helloluxeblog

I actually have a few pen-pals, and all of them are bloggers that I have connected with through blogging. My advice for getting penpals is to DM or email someone- maybe a blogger who is following you etc. and say a bit about yourself and just ask if they want to be penpals!

Favourite store, movie, tv show and you tuber? -@barham.amelie_2

My favourite shop is probably Kikki K and Typo. I love the divergent and hunger games movies, modern family tv show and my favourite YouTuber is My Life As Eva.

Your opinion on vegimite? -@basicallyjem_

Super interesting question -haha- I actually really like it! A lot of people hate it and say that it's too salty, but I think that if you have it right (ie. On toast with a lot of butter) it's really good. 

Favourite quote? -@basicallyjem_

I love- "dreams don't work unless you do" because a lot of people say they want something, but don't actually work towards it- so this quote just reminds people that you have to work for you dreams, they won't just magically happen.

Your go to outfit? -@vanilla.highlights

In winter a jumper, jeans and my converse. In summer just shorts, a patterned shirt or top and sandals.

Something blogging has taught you? -@vanilla.highlights

I think blogging has taught me to be myself. It's taught me that its really important and also really good to be original with my photos and blog, and people will like me for who i am.

If you could change anything in the world what would it be? -@misssocean

I would make sure everybody lived in equality, so everyone has the right amount of food, water and other resources and no one was treated differently or discriminated against.

Favourite beach to travel to? -@misssocean

I love traveling to the great barrier reef in Queensland (even though i've only been there once!) Its just so beautiful.

Favourite place to travel to? -@misssocean

England was amazing and I would love to go back, but in Australia probably Marysville in the Yarra Valley because it so beautiful and there's lots of things to do there.

Number 1 thing on your bucket list? -@misssocean

Travel the world !!

Who do you admire and why?/who is your role model? -@misssocean

I definitely admire Chessie from Freshly Pickked Blog, because she just has the most amazing blog, Instagram, YouTube and photography! She is super inspiring.

Dream job? -@dayyydreamers_

I would love to be a professional photographer or a graphic/interior designer.
