WELCOME TO Carolina Blogging

Inspiration Rooted in Carolina Charm

I’m Sarah, a North Carolina native, travel enthusiast, and lover of slow mornings and salty breezes.

Carolina Blogging was born from a deep love of the place I call home, North Carolina. From sunrise over the coast to sunset behind the Blue Ridge, every corner of this state has its own story.

I love how a weekend drive can take you from salty air to mountain views, from small-town charm to city life.

Where It Began

Carolina Blogging was co-founded in 2015 with a simple but ambitious vision: create a space where North and South Carolina bloggers could connect, learn from one another, and grow together.

At the time, blogging was still emerging as a professional channel, and resources for creators, especially at the local level, were limited. What began as a collaborative idea quickly evolved into a thriving regional community built on shared knowledge and mutual support.

We hosted one of the area’s early blog conferences in Gastonia, North Carolina, bringing creators together for in-person education on branding and newsletters long before those conversations became standard in the digital space. Carolina Blogging expanded into curated workshops and partnerships with local businesses, gathering bloggers inside storefronts and venues to amplify small business visibility while strengthening our own professional skills.

As the digital landscape matured, so did Carolina Blogging.

What began as a multi-creator network evolved into a founder-led platform, with a renewed vision to carry forward the original mission: elevate small businesses across North and South Carolina, foster meaningful connections, and share travel experiences.

Today, Carolina Blogging operates as an independently led brand. I partner with guest contributors, highlight regional destinations and businesses, and extend that work through personalized vacation planning for clients seeking thoughtfully planned travel.
