Four years ago today I embarked into the world of online blogging, the topic, volcanoes. Since then, I have finished a masters at Lancaster, spent a year in the real world of work and started a PhD, which incidentally, is nearing completion. Along the way, I have blogged about volcanic trips to Etna, Vulcano and Stromboli; conferences in Japan (including a fortuitous eruption of Sakurajima!), Vienna, San Francisco, Edinburgh and Norwich. What a few years it has been! Of course, any blog scientific blog wouldn't be complete without discussion of my own research and a little bit of fun - impressions of David Attenborough and exploding duck bins - the latter courtesy of the VMSG conference in Edinburgh. A lot of this couldn't have been possible without a number of people (who know who they are!). Blogging has certainly been easier with a lot to write about.
Over the past four years I have gained inspiration on blogging topics from my own work and experiences, to the thoughts of fellow online bloggers. One thing is for sure I have thoroughly enjoyed blogging, being involved in the volcanic community and the opportunity to take part in adding to research in the field. Here's to many more years of blogging to come (and hopefully a job at some point...).
