Two years as the organizer of the Vancouver Blogger Meetup

Raul eats cheese!When I first began writing my personal blog (on Blogger, no less!) my objective was never to be “a popular blogger“. Despite the fact that I do love blogging, I enjoy using social media platforms and I really cherish socializing with my fellow bloggers and social media folks, I never intended to be seen as “a star”. Admittedly, I am comfortable in the spotlight (yet I don’t actually seek it).

There is one, and only one reason that keeps me going as the Organizer of the Vancouver Blogger Meetup (my second official anniversary is today, even though I started in April 2008, as a heir to my dear friend Isabella Mori‘s blogging throne): I love building and fostering communities.

I don’t have as much time as I used to, so I am grateful to my Assistant Organizers Shane Birley and Jonathon Narvey who have stepped in to help earlier this past year. Overall, it’s been a good ride. I’ve met a lot of great people and strengthened many of my own friendships. Here is to a wonderful group, the Vancouver Bloggers Meetup.
