Hello, welcome to my blog and thanks for stopping by 🙂 My name is Natalie. I am a thirty something woman living in London. I have been living here for over 8 9 years and have been wanting to start this blog for a while now. I feel that I have learnt a lot in the last few years and would like to use this blog to share a few things with you. I am constantly researching all sorts of things online and have also been named “Princess Googlethu” by my husband. The word Googlethu was coined from a township in South Africa called Gugulethu. I originally come from South Africa and the word sounds similar to Google hence my namesake 🙂
“What You Didn’t Know” is a collection point for all my findings, thoughts and experiences. I hope that my blog will also provide useful information, good reads, inspiration and motivation for you. If I can help at least 1 person from the information I have shared writing this blog then I will have achieved my goal.
I try to post twice a week – Tuesdays are for travel and London related posts and Thursdays are for health or lifestyle posts. I love hearing from you and welcome comments and feedback is much appreciated. If you like what you read, sign up for my blog posts by email, or follow me on Twitter for regular updates.
Reviews & Product Features
If you are a company and would like me to try your product or service, with the possibility of a feature on my blog or social channels, please get in touch. I will always give an honest opinion and I will only write about products or topics that I think will suit the style and readership of my blog. Please drop me an email at whatudidntknowblog [at] gmail [dot] com.
