Hello. I am co-founder of the popular female travel community We Are Travel Girls.
大家好。我是广受欢迎的女性旅游社区《我们是旅游女孩》的联合创始人。
We collect and publish stories from women traveling all over the world.
我们收集出版来自世界各地的女性的故事。
We promote women's blogs.
我们推广女性博客。
We host meetings and events and are getting ready to launch our Travel with Us Trips in Bali, Japan and Malawi.
我们主办会议和活动，并准备在巴厘岛、日本和马拉维开启“我们的旅行”活动。
Before I started We Are Travel Girls, I had a successful 10-year career in finance in London, where I advised private clients on their investments.
在我开创《我们是旅行女孩》之前，我在伦敦的金融行业有10年的成功职业生涯，在那里我为私人客户的投资提供建议。
Having always had a huge love for travel, I finally took the leap and left finance to pursue my dream of starting a travel company.
我一直对旅行有着巨大的热爱，最终我迈出了这一步，离开了金融行业，去追求创办一家旅游公司的梦想。
For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a travel writer.
从我记事起，我就想成为一名旅行作家。
Before blogs existed and everything we read was online, I would go to travel writing seminars by writers who were published in travel magazines.
在博客和线上阅读出现之前，我会去参加旅行写作研讨会，这是由发表在旅游杂志上的作家开展的。
I was desperate to write for one of those magazines, but didn't know how to break into that industry.
我非常渴望为其中一家杂志撰稿，但不知道如何进入那个行业。
After university l ended up working in finance, but always had a desire to travel and write about it.
大学毕业后，我在金融行业工作，但一直渴望旅行，想把过程记录下来。
In 2015, I was looking at ways to leave finance and my best friend Vanessa who grew up on a ranch on the central coast of California suggested starting a blog.
2015年，正当我考虑如何离开金融业时，我最好的朋友凡妮莎建议我开一个博客，她在加州中部海岸的一个农场长大。
But when we started creating it, we realized that was the same thing every girl was doing.
但当我们开始制作博客时，才意识到这是每个女孩都在做的事情。
So we turned our attention to creating a community among these women.
所以我们把注意力转向在这些女性之间建立一个社区。
This let us to start We Are Travel Girls, which has now grown into a community of over 200, 000 followers.
这让我们创立了《我们是旅行女孩》，现在已经成长为一个拥有超过20万粉丝的社区。
To anyone thinking about becoming a travel writer, I would suggest they first try and look for a unique way to enter the industry.
对于任何想成为旅行作家的人，我建议他们首先尝试并寻找进入这个行业的独特方式。
There are a lot of travel writers now and it can be hard to stand out from the crowd, which is really why we started We Are Travel Girls.
现在有很多旅行作家，想脱颖而出却很难，这就是为什么我们创立了《我们是旅行女孩》。
Be prepared to work hard if you want to turn it into a full-time business and try not to rush to selling advertising spaces before you have created a dedicated audience.
如果你想把它变成一项全职业务，就要做好努力工作的准备，在你还没有拥有忠实的读者群体之前，不要急于出售广告位。
The size of your audience doesn't necessarily need to be huge, but you want them to be engaged.
你的用户规模不一定要很大，但你最好希望他们都能参与其中。
If you post too many promotions early on, you will turn many people off.
如果你在一开始就发布太多的促销信息，就会让很多人失去兴趣。
