More About Little Lives Big, Winner of the Versatile Blogger Award
I am SO very excited to share with you all that I have been awarded the Versatile Blogger Award!
I am incredibly flattered and appreciative, especially since my travel blog is only three weeks old. I have been working so hard to write engaging and interesting content, share helpful tips, and really get my Little Lives Big name out there.
For all of you who read my travel posts, leave comments, and 
follow me on social media: THANK YOU! Thank you for believing in me, trusting me, and engaging with me. Thank you to everyone who shares my posts with friends and family. I truly do want to build a community of like-minded people who are as obsessed with travel as I am. If you haven’t subscribed yet, please do so now so you can get my travel tips and recommendations sent right to you!
The biggest thank you, however, goes to Natalie Micallef, a fellow blogger and founder of “If I can do it”. She nominated me for the Versatile Blogger Award. Natalie, I enjoy following you on Instagram and reading about your adventures! I’m so happy that, together, we can spread the travel bug!

The Versatile Blogger Award is an award given to bloggers by bloggers.
Bloggers must consider the quality of the writing, the blog’s individuality, and the passion and personality conveyed through the blogger’s posts when nominating. I am so thrilled to be a Versatile Blogger Award recipient and recognized in this unique way. My travel blog, which targets travel-craving millennials, is brand new and this award gives me motivation to keep writing and sharing!
Those who earn the Versatile Blogger Award are encouraged to write a post that includes seven random facts about themselves. So, here goes nothing…
7 Facts About Me:
1. Working out is a must! I wake up at 5AM Monday-Friday to get a good workout in before I head to wor
k. I absolutely do not wake up at 5AM on the weekends (I sleep in, I promise!), but I do try to hit the gym at some point either Saturday or Sunday. Gaining weight is extremely easy for me, and I LOVE TO EAT, so getting some cardio and weightlifting in each day is essential.
2. I’m the oldest of two girls. And get this— my younger sister is about 10 inches taller than me. Crazy right? I may have to look up to her technically, and she may tower over me even when I’m in heels, but she will always be my 
baby sister. I’m little, hence the name: Little Lives Big.
3. Disney World fanatic is an understatement. I’ve been to Disney more times than I can count! There were years when I went more than once and, no, I do not live in or near Florida. My family loves the attractions, the rollercoasters, the costumes, the shows and parades, the restaurants, and the happiness that exists there. We just can’t get enough. Growing up, we used to stay in Disney for 12-13 days because one week just wasn’t enough time to truly DO IT ALL. Any other Disney lovers out there?! The Port Orleans French Quarter is my absolute favorite Disney World resort.
4. I’m a diehard New York Yankee fan (shout out to Aaron Judge!) although I grew up about 20 minutes outside of Philadelphia. My family is originally from NY and I am a Jersey girl to the
core. I currently live in Baltimore, MD and my parents are soon selling my childhood home and moving to Savannah, GA but New Jersey and New York will always have special places in my heart. You can learn more about my background in my About Me section!
5. I am heading to my 14th country in a few weeks. My sister and I are traveling to Europe together for the first time this month! On June 30th, we’ll be embarking on a two-week journey through Greece. Do you have any tips or suggestions for us? Drop a comment below!
6. USA’s west coast: I haven’t seen it yet. I will be visiting Seattle in late August for a wedding though. I cannot wait! What must-sees do y
ou recommend in/near Seattle?
7. I’m a sister of Kappa Delta Sorority and graduated from Towson University in Towson, MD. AOT to all my fellow KD ladies out there! I’m also a member of GLT (Girls LOVE Travel). Apparently I enjoy connecting and surrounding myself with others who have similar interests and passions.
Last year, I explored 7 countries in just 10 days— and you can too! Find out more here.

Keep dreaming and keep traveling, everyone! 🙂
