👉 Introduce myself
Hi there, this is Ying! 😊 You can also call me Suri (similar to "Hey Siri!")
I come from China, and this is my second time visiting the UK. I enjoy exploring the new cultural and natural landscape, also I love capturing these moments with photos and videos! I am using other social Chinese social media to share it. It is my first time using the Blog to record and share something, so I am still learning it!
I also like to try new things, such as new dishes, baking, skiing, parachuting... Hope you have the same hobbies as me~ 😉
Below are my recent photography and dessert works:
Oxford
Manchester
Red bean paste & rice cake
👉 Share with you an amazing blogger!
Since this is my first time blogging, the platform feels like a blank SLATE for me. I need to learn a lot of new skills! How to run a blog?
It does not only need to output useful content, but also consider the audiences' needs, layout design, technical support and so on!
If you are new like me. I highly recommend you follow this blogger - Cathrin Manning

Hi Ying / Suri! I love the name of your blog -very clever! Well done for putting your first post up. You have a friendly, chatty style that really suits blogging. You also have some great pictures although I would have liked more detail about them - especially the recipe for your red bean paste and rice cake!! You have found an interesting blogger but I'm not sure why you chose her and not one of the ELT bloggers we reviewed? I think they are a better model for the kind of blog you will make. Cathrin Manning seems to be the kind of blogger who is mainly interested in the commercial side. There seem to be two very different stances on blogging: 1) that it's mainly a way to make money 2) that it's a way to share useful information for free. However sadly even those who start out just sharing end up selling (Jamie Keddie, Nik Peachey, Larry Ferlazzo....). Your last point was intriguing - I would have liked more information about those 4 items of software! Thanks again for your self-introduction and I hope you enjoy your blogging journey!
ReplyDeleteHi Ying, it is nice to see so many beautiful shots in the UK, and I guess you love recording life and could be a vlogger (maybe). Personally, I believe blogging is a good way to share experiences and thoughts about life. Finally, I am interested in the software for beautifying pictures and maybe you can share in detail in the future!
ReplyDeleteI think the style of your blog is sooo cute! The way you combine pictures with demonstrations is impressive. Good job!
