Introducing leilasi

Screen Shot 2013-02-15 at 9.35.00 AMMeet Leila, lensmaster leilasi. She’s only been on Squidoo for a week or, but she hit the ground running and is quickly building a portfolio of really great lenses. Enjoy getting to know her!

What brought you to Squidoo? I was looking for a great website to write for. I had considered writing blogs, but in a place like Squidoo is much easier to interact with people and getting your content seen, and there is more room for playing with different themes, while a blog needs more focus.

In your bio you call yourself a life explorer and your lenses certainly reflect that. What part of life will you be exploring in upcoming new lenses? Mainly about ecofriendly living, do it yourself and ideas for making life easier. I also want to write some lenses about relationships and personal development.

If you could travel to one place you’ve never been, where would it be? Bokrijk, here in Belgium. It’s a living museum, where people can see how life was a few centuries ago, which really inspires me!

What can Squidoo do for you? First, being a place to find interesting things. Also a place to post what interests me, get new ideas and tips about the things that I love, and I also want to be a stay at home mom when I have kids, so Squidoo also carries the possibility of being an extra income source.

Summer or winter? I love both, but the snow really enchants me. I feel like a little kid when I see it, so winter!

Susan52 didn't know she wanted to be a Giant Squid when she grew up, but here she is and she couldn't be happier about it! When she isn't doing one thing or another here at Squidoo, you'll probably find her spending time with her family or otherwise appreciating life one moment at a time.

    This blows me away. How in the world did you get this much content on here in a week? You were either sandbagging or you are the most interesting person in the world…with no one to talk to. At any rate, I’m impressed and if I get a good lens like one of yours done in a month, I’ll be happy.

    • http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/leilasi leilasi

      Wow, thanks!!! I do have people to talk to, but writing is always different… I feel that putting my ideas by written helps me in a way to organize my mind and revisit things that I knew and had forgotten. I also read a lot.

      The main thing for me is to write on subjects that are fluent to me and don’t require much further research, it goes really quick. I avoid things that make me research too much only to make a lens, that really gives me overload (tried).

      I’m also determined to have a source of income in Squidoo!

  • http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/pochi123 pochi123
