2. What led you to start your blog and what is it about?
We were on the way to our first-ever holiday trip together. At the airport, waiting for our boarding gates to open, we decided to just make an account for our close friends to just be jealous of when they see us together. Over a period of time, we didn't even know that it inspired so many people. The work was a lot, but the part that we have a family who we call "homies" kept supporting us and took out the time to tell us that what we're doing is positively impacting people, it motivated us to do it more.
Honestly, more than that, we used the reason of making content together as a way to spend time with each other, and now thinking of it in long term, this seems very much possible as a long-term career option! We learned ways to monetize it and now for being able to grow it further we need to increase our family, that's where you came in. Thanks!
3. Is it financially sustainable to be and digital creator these days?
Being financially sustainable is a different term for different people. For us, it's to be able to support our needs & be able to help our families as and when required, whether monetarily or in general.
This industry is booming and with no doubt, it does have income for those who are ready to put in the hours and energy to get what they want.
4. How can someone become a successful content creator?
To be a successful creator, or to be successful in any career/post for a matter of fact, you need to make sure you hustle to do your best & you love what you do. It needs to be sustainable in the long run, keep planning as you go ahead.
5. How and where do you find inspiration to churn out content?
There's lots of inspiration around, may it be someone we follow on Instagram or Pinterest, without inspiration you can not guide your idea to a certain place. Given that, we make sure not to copy it, in a world of content, content consumers want originality. By the end of it, they follow you for you, not someone else's work.
Plus, as artists from Day 1, we love getting our creative juices flowing! It feels natural to find and make something new, whether it's in the physical world.
6. Who is your favorite creator and why?
At the moment, we don't have a favorite creator. We realized that having one ideal creator takes us into a bad headspace because we try to be them, whereas that's not right in the first place. So, we find inspiration to work harder & uniquely from smaller creators & professionally from bigger creators. Lots of people are doing great workaround, and so many deserve recognition!
7. Which Is your favorite book and why?
No Favourite book.
