I was just curious why you don't push lens protocol social platform from your other social platforms with major following?
It's either 1 of two things.

- Hello there! 👋🏻 So, you are wondering why I don’t post Lens exclusive content, right?
Well, a friend introduced me to Lens, and I really liked the concept. So, I started posting on Lens as an experiment, which I'm still exploring. Initially, I posted some pictures and videos exclusively here, but I didn’t notice much difference in engagement. After all, a travel post is a travel post, right? 😄 I found myself putting in a lot of effort to write posts for both Lens and Instagram, which became quite overwhelming. I had to write posts in my native language and then recreate that content into a few posts in English with different images and videos for Lens. It was a lot of work for minimal gain.
So, I decided to simplify things. I now focus on quality over quantity, writing one version of my posts in my native language and another in English. I carefully select the best 10 images to represent each part of my travel journey.
If you’ve ever tried something similar, you know it's time consuming. Sorting through thousands of pictures, writing detailed notes, and answering questions from my 160000 Instagram followers takes a lot of time. Then there's trip planning, hotel bookings, adventures, and discovering unique aspects of each country - all of which I describe in my posts for everyone's benefit.
And let’s not forget about sponsorships! Balancing all of this means I sometimes don't even have time to see my mom when I return from trips. 😅 I love what I do, but there's a lot that goes on behind the scenes that many people don’t see. There are a lot of other things, and of course, there’s my personal life 🙈
It’s all part of balancing and managing expectations.
I hope this sheds some light on why I don’t post Lens exclusive content. This doesn't mean it will stay like this forever. Things change 🥰
- It seems we haven't crossed paths on Lens or in my notifications before! 😅 I hope you enjoy what I'm sharing 🤗 and I'm looking forward to more positive interactions with you in the future 😊
