Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
1,000 +7,000 + 500 = Contest time!
Wow! I have recently reached 1k twitter followers! And over 7k tweets! Amazing!
I am just about to hit 500 fans on my awesome Facebook fan page that I update all the time!
Because I am really excited about these particular things I am going to hold a contest! The winner gets a $20 iTunes or Amazon gift card (your choice)!
The only requirement?
Leave a comment on this post! That’s it, easy peasy! I will randomly choose a winner next Wednesday and announce it on this same blog (and of course, contact the winner!)
What are you waiting for? Comment away!
Thank you to everyone who commented! I really enjoyed reading each one! I used Random.org to pick the number so it was truly random!
