Two More NATJA Awards for Rose Palmer

Once again, for the fourth year in a row NATJA has recognized my work with awards for both writing and photography.

The 2020 NATJA competition was especially competitive since there was no longer a distinction between print and online categories. So this year, I was going head to head with writers and photographers from long established publications like the Washington Post, the New York Times and Conde Nest Traveler, which makes these awards all that much more meaningful to me.

Here are the links to this year’s winning entries:

Silver – Luxury and Resort Travel

Boomer Adventure on a Burgundy Canal Barge Cruise

Silver – Photography – Portrait, People

Doing it for the Gram

 

Thank you NATJA for once again recognizing my work and thank you to everyone that continues to follow and read my blog. Here’s hoping to renewing all our travel adventures again this year.
