Writing for this blog has been an interesting and exciting experience for me. I had the unique opportunity to combine two of my passions, travel and politics, while also seeking to empower young girls and inspire them to engage with the world around them. I must admit, this was a challenging task. I learned to write in a crisp and concise way while also working to attract readers and subtly inject politics into seemingly unrelated topics. At times, it felt a bit disjointed, as if I was trying too hard to make the connection between travel and political engagement. However, it also motivated me to think more critically about the world, something I hope my readers observed as well.
I'm not quite sure if we achieved the purpose of this blog--to attract an audience of girls aged 13-15 years old and increase their interest in politics. While there's no way to measure how successful we were, the assignment did prompt me to consider how teenage girls would react to the content I produced. I had to adapt my writing style and adjust how I presented my argument. For me, blogging was a completely new experience, but I found that I really enjoyed it.
I hope that you enjoyed reading this blog as well. Bon voyage!
