10 Reasons I Want to Take Part in Blogtour 2012

Bloggers. Travel. Design. Fun!

Blogtour 2012 is about to kick off and it sounds beyond amazing! In case you have not heard, Blogtour was created by Veronika Miller of Modenus. It is a sponsored event where a select group of design and lifestyle bloggers is invited to join Modenus on a five-day trip to an international design destination. Doesn’t that sound amazing? I honestly can’t think of anything more fun, so, of course I applied!

Here are the 10 reasons why I want to go on Blogtour 2012:
 
1. I love all things pretty and, seriously, where can you find more pretty than in London, Paris, Milan or New York City?  
 
 
2. I have been obsessed with design since I started rearranging furniture in my Fisher Price A-Frame House. Honestly, the only reason I played with dollhouses was so that I could decorate the rooms the way I wanted. So, to go on a trip to an amazing destination with other design bloggers to explore the best in design? Dream. Come. True.
 
3. I love connecting with people that share the same passion for pretty that I do. They inspire me in so many ways. 
 
 
4. I just know I would learn so much from any of the amazing bloggers on the list. I love any opportunity to learn and to become a better blogger.
 
5. I love to tweet and pin my heart out on pinterest and I just know there will be a shed load of tweet-and-pinterest-worthy material. It would also give me the perfect excuse to buy an iphone. And possibly, a super fancy cover.
 
6. I wrote that I wanted to go on a design focused trip to Europe on my Wish List for 2012. Before I learned about this blogtour! Dare I say…..Sarah-ndipity? 
 
7. I have not been to Europe with a design eye. When I lived in Stockholm and, later, in London, I appreciated the beauty but I did not make the most of the inspiration there. I would love the chance to see London, Paris {or Milan} with a new perspective.
 
8. I am not going to lie…the idea of shopping in London, Paris or Milan makes my heart {and closet} so very happy!
 
 
9. Life is short so I think it is so important to make the most of it by experiencing as much of life as I can.
 
10. I am a travel addict. I love visiting new places and seeing everything there possibly is to see, experiencing every experience. When I travel, sleep is optional but fun is essential. I have lived in Stockholm and London, but the past few years, my passport has been collecting dust. It is so ready to get back in the game. And this just in:
