Could you introduce yourself in a few lines so that our community can get to know you better?
Hello, I'm Eva, 36 years old. I'm the mother of two little ones and I work for a big internet company. In parallel, I've created my blog, which I use as a pressure relief valve. I write about my city, Nantes, which I adore, but also about fashion, beauty, food... in short, anything that takes my fancy! Above all, I like to have a positive and light tone, even futile at times.
When did you create your blog and/or launch your social networking page?
In fact, it'll be 4 years in February... I'm getting to be an "oldie". I started with Twitter, when I launched the blog. Then Facebook, a month or so later. And then: my Instagram account: two years ago now (I didn't have a smartphone before).
What triggered you to get involved in blogging and/or social networking?
When I moved to Nantes 4 and a half years ago, I felt alone and set out to discover my new city via a blog about it. The blog quickly evolved into a lifestyle blog. For the record, I've met a lot of people through the blog and I don't regret this wonderful human adventure at all.
If I had to do it all over again, I'd do it 1,000 times over!
Which community are you targeting?
All of you! Anyone who wants to follow me! All you need, I think, is a positive spirit and a sense of humour. I always say it's important not to take yourself too seriously...in fact, it's sickening to take yourself too seriously, don't you think?
Where do you find your main inspiration? And which social networks do you use the most?
I'm a supermarket blogger, and I'm not ashamed to say it. I don't have a big budget, so I draw inspiration from what I experience.
How do you manage your time between work, your private life, your social networks and your blog? And what's your job outside this world?
I work on the blog once the kids are in bed and at weekends, as it's very busy. I shoot the looks at lunchtime, and put in days for blog-related activities. It's quite an organization! So I manage as best I can, and I'm hyper-connected too. My work is personal, I can only tell you that I'm in a big French company, it's my "secret garden". Blogging is completely unrelated to my work. Separating activities is the right solution.
Did one collaboration stand out for you more than others? And if so, which one?
Yes, the one with Bonobo, it was at the very beginning of the blog and thanks to this crazy and unexpected collaboration I met Anaïs, a person with a big heart and many qualities. What's more, I was able to go to the Route du Rock in a killer outfit. Then there's Aigle, who regularly accompanies me on the blog and whom I kiss. Then there's Klorane, love Roseline. And Blanche porte, kisses Frorence. In fact, for me it's a question of people and feeling... I like long-term collaborations, so with each new collaboration, a new story is written!
And yes, I'm sentimental!
What would you like to undertake or develop next?
I don't know, a blog trip? After that, I don't know, I don't expect anything crazy, it just happens as I go along and fills me with joy.
Do you produce your own visuals and photos? And if so, what equipment do you use?
My friend Alice (coutureaddicted.com) takes pictures of me, especially for the looks, with his Canon Eos 100 D. But I take care of all the other photos with my Canon Eos 100 D.
What advice would you give to other influencers in the community?
Be yourself and have fun - that's what counts!
What do you think of Value Your Network?
A great way to make ends meet! Well-chosen collaborations. Fun and useful to pass on to readers!
