Fick en riktigt tropisk start på veckan idag. Nu ska jag kötta jobb i två dygn och sedan åker jag till alperna för att njuta av naturen. Berätta mer om besöket på Tropical Islands sen! Puss!
Got a really tropical start to the week today. Now I’ll bury myself in work for two days and then go to the Alps to enjoy the nature. I’ll tell you more about the visit to Tropical Islands later! xx
So long novemberkylan! Nu hoppar jag och Fanny på bussen till Tropical Islands, ett tropiskt komplex i en jättekupol i utkanten av Berlin. Återkommer med ett litet omdöme sen!
Hur som helst! Minns ni Paulina som jag fotade med för ett tag sedan? Hon intevjuade mig för Superlative Magazine också. Här kommer bilderna och intevjun. Enjoy!
So long chilly November weather! Now Fanny and I get on the bus to Tropical Islands, a tropical complex in a giant cupol in the outskirts of Berlin. I’ll be back with a small review later!
Anyway! Do you remember Paulina I shot with a while ago? She interviewed me for Superlative Magazine after the shoot. Here are the pictures and answers. Enjoy!
Please introduce yourself: who are you, how old are you and whats your blog all about?
My name is Ebba Zingmark, I’m a 20 year old blogger/social media influencer from the north of Sweden. Since a year back I’m based in Berlin. My blog is a typical fashion-lifestyle blog, it’s about everything from food, personal thoughts and traveling but with a focus on fashion.
Since when are you blogging and how has your blog developed since its start?
I’ve been blogging since I was 14, so it has been 6 years now. Time flies! My blog has definitely developed since the start, at first it was mainly about photography but then it developed to a fashion-lifestyle blog by time.
What is your goal with the blog?
Just being able to have a platform for my creativity, get response and connect with other creative people.
How do you monetize it?
How I run my blog? Well, there’s a lot of time spent in front of the computer screen and the camera. My sister is my right hand: she’s helping me to handle everything from economy to photography.
How do you handle postings for brands with the goal to advertise its products?
The good thing about the commercialization of the blogging business is that it’s easy to live from your blog without having to represent brands you don’t like. We bloggers gets so many offers these days that it gives us the luxury of getting to be really picky.
Bloggers get more and more buyable. Whats your opinion on this?
There’s ads everywhere- in magazines, sports, TV and so on. But in blogs it’s hand picked by a person, which makes it more authentic. I do think we have to get better at marking which posts are sponsored and not, our readers deserve to know that (even if it’s products the blogger would use and recommend without getting paid for it).
Who are your idols?
Oh I don’t know. Lena Dunham and Stella McCartney are two amazing role models!
What are your future plans?
To be honest I have no idea- that’s both scary and exciting.
(this super cool kind of racoon dog was our favorite one)
Här är några snabba snapshots från när gnusse och jag gjorde ett spontant besök på djurparken som ligger bara någon station från vår nya lägenhet. Fick så himla dåliga bilder på grund av mörkret, men nu visar jag er några stycken i alla fall, haha.
På något magiskt sätt lyckas jag alltid bosätta mig i närheten av djur. Det är lika bra att jag skaffar årskort så jag kan säkra min livsnödvändiga dos av djur-gos.
Here are some quick snapshots from when gnusse and I made a spontaneous visit to the zoo which is just one station away from our new apartment. Didn’t get any good pics because of the dark, but whatever, i’ll show you some anyway, haha.
In some magical way, I always manage to live at areas with a lot of of animals, haha. I guess I might as well get a year ticket so I can make sure I get my vital dose of animal-cuddle.
(haha orkar inte denna bild. Kunde inte låta bli)
(of course we couldn’t stay away from these post card machines, hahaah lol)
(självklart tycker jag att det finns mycket att diskutera kring djurparker=vinstdrivande företag med inburade djur som koncept. Men måste säga att detta kändes som en rätt schysst park)
(of course I think there’s much to discuss regarding zoos= profit companies with caged animals as concept. But must say that that the animals in this seemed to be pretty healthy and happy)
VARFÖR har jag inte upptäckt multi-use balms tidigare?! Har blivit helt besatt av dessa små burkar sedan jag insåg hur mycket jag kan använda dem till. Det är bodylotion, läppglans, ansiktscreme, hårolja i ett! Ingredienslistan innehåller bara bra grejer och de går igenom säkerhetskontrollen på flygplatsen untan probs när du vill resa utan incheckade väskor. Att bara behöva ha en eller ett fåtal produkter i badrumsskåpet tilltalar mig så himla mycket, det känns ju bara logiskt eftersom det egentligen inte är så stor skillnad på vad håret, huden och kroppen mår bra av. Dessa är två varianter jag tycker funkar extremt bra, men ekologisk kokosolja funkar även bra till det mesta.
Why haven’t I discovered multi-use balms before?! I’ve become completely obsessed with these little jars since I realized in how many different ways I can use them. As body lotion, lip gloss, face cream, hair oil, and more! The ingredient list includes 100% good stuff and they go through airport security without probs when you want to travel without checked-in bags.
The thought of just having one or a few products on the bathroom shelf appeals to me so much, that just makes sense because there’s not much difference between what makes the hair, skin and body feel good. These are two balms I just love using for everythig, but organic coconut oil will take you far too.
Låt oss fira in helgen med ett rykande färskt poddavsnitt! Vi snackar om allt från ilskeutbrott i kundtjänst, Essena Oneill’s “avgång” från sociala medier och fantastiskt idiotiska uttalanden. Lyssna HÄR!
This week’s podcast episode!
