Welcome to The Lopes Journey

Who’s Behind The Lopes Journey?

Hi, I’m Anthiya Lopes—a content creator, project manager, and lifelong learner. I started my blogging journey back in 2016 out of a deep love for storytelling and sharing real-life experiences. What began as casual posts on Blogger has now evolved into this platform: The Lopes Journey.

This space is more than just a blog—it's a digital diary, a source of curated tips, and a growing hub for readers looking for authenticity in the noisy online world.The Lopes Journey began in 2016 when my passion for writing blogs became a reality. I first started writing blogs on Blogger, moved to WordPress, took a 2-year break, then shifted to GoDaddy, and now this is my space! If you are reading this, thank you for supporting my journey.

What You’ll Find on The Lopes Journey

Whether you're navigating a wellness routine, exploring new travel destinations, or learning how to grow your business online with a virtual assistant or project manager, this blog is for you.

Topics I write about include:

Health & Lifestyle Advice (researched and relatable—not medical advice, but practical tips you can use)
Travel Guides & Weekend Itineraries
Behind-the-Scenes Life Updates
Social Media & Project Management Tips for small business owners and aspiring freelancers

Each post is infused with honesty, personal experience, and a sprinkle of humor—because life’s too short to be boring.

A Look Back at My Blogging Timeline

2016

Launched my first blog on Blogger, inspired by my sister and a love for writing. At that time, blogs were very popular, and the concept of reels or videos didn’t exist.

2017

My travels sparked new content—food, recipes, travel guides, and lifestyle musings. I also began sharing on Medium. I found myself enjoying writing more with each passing day, and this wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my family and friends.

2018

Transitioned to WordPress, sharpening my voice and expanding my blog’s reach.
