A new chapter

Greetings, dear reader of this blog.

As you know, this page has been very silent ever since I started with youtube - you probably can imagine why *winks*
Right now, a lot of things are changing and even more things are yet to change - it feels like I have openied up a new chapter with the turning of the seasons past. I also tried aroud a bit with balancing my work- and leisuretime, as well as being in touch with you guys and it feels like I am finally starting to get a hang of it, now that the first term at the new Uni is done.

And lately, I feel inspired to write more. Maybe posts on their own, maybe posts to go with a topic I am convering in one of my videos; but for the first time in a while; the motivation and inspiration is there :)

BUT (there is always a 'but'...), one thing will be very different: I will not be writing in English anymore.

The Google translate header will remain, and you can have my German glibberish translated into any language you please - I know it is not the same, but technology is getting better and better (but definitely feel free to share possibly really fucked up sentences in the comments with me).
The language of my videos, my instagram, facebook page and direct interactions with you will still remain in English, it is just the writing language of my blog that is to change.
I might even leave my headers in English, so it is easier for you guys to see what a post is about when you access it through a facebook link.

Before you (possibly) flip your table upon why I want to torment my readers with funky Google translate sentences, here is why:

I have noticed, that oftentimes, the reason why I am not writing a post, is because of English.
Personally, I adore this language (and I also find it a lot more elegant than German in some ways), but nevertheless; it is not my mothertongue. It does take that extra bit of focus and energy, that I sometimes don't have.
Another reason is that 80% of my readers are German speaking anyways. This is just a small extra "reason" why I am taking this step, my main is that I just want to write freely, directly from the heart and I feel like I cannot do it in a foreign language - it doesn't feel like me and a lot of times I end up not being happy with the endresult or trash a finished post because it feels weird (because of English).

My layout and design might also get a wee overhaul *winks*, so you could say I am setting this thing up anew entirely :3 I am still pondering about if I want to move it over to wordpress or not; but I will decide when I am back from Iceland next week.

I hope you guys are well, do let me know about how you feel about this, but I really hope you can understand.
I won't stick with English as my blogging language, but I also want to hear your concerns and your feelings towards this and regognize them.

Now back to cuddling the cat; read you again in German - or which ever language you choose in the Google-thingy!


Lots of Elflove,
Rica
