any tips for aspiring bloggers?

I find this question interesting.. because I feel like there's a whole new generation of people who pursue to just be a 'blogger'. I think you need to find your point of difference and use it as a platform for whatever you want to aspire to do other than just blogging. It's a highly saturated industry now and I feel like aspiring to be just a blogger won't be beneficial in the long term, it's pretty static, it's time consuming and there's a lot of creative thinking that goes into it. It really depends where you eventually want to take it.. and if you want to make something out of it in the long run.

Love hanging by the beach.. so go Eastern Suburbs but also make sure you spend a day in the Northern Beaches; Palm Beach.

What do u think about UNSW? I'm planning to study aboard in Australia, any tips for the applications?

I studied there.. UNSW is great for internationals. I got accepted as I am an Australian student I'm assuming our applications were a lot easier, so have no idea what the international applications are like.

hey yanyan! do you ever apply any tanning lotion? Feel like asians never really get an even tan but im in love with yours x

I tan really easily, my skin's naturally quiet olive. I've never used fake tan - sunscreen is the way to go.

Hey Yan! I'm looking to move to Sydney from Melbourne and was wondering where your favourite places are to live or where the good areas are?

I've always grown up near the beach in the Eastern suburbs, so that's what I'm use to. If you're more of a city gal; Paddington, Woollahra, Surry Hills, Redfern, Chippendale are nice areas. But it really depends on your budget and what you would prefer.

Hey Yan! What was your encounter with Kanye West like? I've heard some stories, but it seemed like he was really nice with you guys!

He was super lovely & talkative.
