Florida Fun- Final Project

My project consists of an Instagram and a website. The Instagram is titled “summerfloridafun,” while the website is titled, “Florida Fun.” It took a lot of patience to create my project because I used Wix to create my website and this was my first time using Wix.
My goal for this project was to outline my many adventures I took while living and visiting Florida over the past three summers. The purpose was also to keep track of where I was and what I was doing and how I felt when going on these many adventures.
My process was a complicated one. It always takes me forever to get an inspiration or idea. My idea took me awhile to fully get in my brain. I know I wanted to expand on my location based narrative but I didn’t know how. I wanted to do something that meant something to more than myself and that would get people interested.
The technology I used was my macbook, Wix, and Instagram, along with Google. The three characteristics I used were location based, nonlinear, and hypertextual. The Instagram aspect of this project is mainly location based because I tag my location in every post. The title of my blog posts on Wix is also the location of where my adventures take place. Both the Instagram and the Wix are nonlinear because you can click on any post and you can read it, they do not go in any order. The third characteristic is hypertextual. Each blog post has a hyperlink in it that leads to the website that is being discussed in the post. 
            My inspiration for this project was my Uncle Danny. He lives in Florida and is always inspiring me to do what makes me happy. He inspired me to become a certified diver since he is a master diver and has his own boat.

            My other inspiration was myself. I want to show people that it does not matter where you come from that you can have big dreams and travel. I also want to keep an accurate record of everywhere I have been and what I have done there.
