I never expect the Globe T@ttAwards to shortlist this blog again for their annual social media recognition. Last year it was a finalist for the "Visualizer" category. This year Nomadic Experiences is mentioned in the same breathe with four other impressive blogs under the "Best Travel and Food" category. At a time when I am starting to feel burn-out with travel writing and updating this website, this news comes as a meaningful shove towards the right direction.
After the announcement of finalists were made last June 13, 2013 - an online poll opened up to the public, to show support and love to their favorite bloggers and other social media practitioners.
To vote: just go to the 2013 Globe T@attAwards website and choose from the 14 categories and vote by logging in to youre Facebook, Twitter and Google + accounts.

Being a finalist feels great already, especially with the many blogs out there and how easy it is to come up with a new one today. Truth to be told, I don't feel deserving of winning as the four other blogs are far more impressive. My friend Gay of Pinay Travel Junkie is also a finalist in the same category. Same goes with a couple other travel blogger friends; Ferdz of Ironwulf and Christian of Walk Aim Shoot, both are listed as finalists in the "Best Photoblog" category.

If you think I provided you with a charming presence the last time we met or you experienced a string of good luck after seeing a rare selfie of mine online, then returning the love is very much welcome by voting for myself and my other co-finalists here:
