Can you believe this? I’ve got three more blogging awards.. I still can’t believe it. I mean, I am not that present in the blogging community lately and seeing so much support and appreciation from other bloggers surprises and moves me all the time.
I am always glad to accept the awards and thank the people who kindly nominated me.
This time I thank Suzanne for the ABC Award, Aly and Dave for the Beautiful Blogger Award and Maria for the Blog of the year 2012.
As usual accepting the awards requires some more actions:
-The ABC Award requires the nominated blogger to share something about him/herself alphabetically and then pass the awards to other bloggers.

Adventurous - Blogger – Curious - Determined - Extrovert - Food lover – Ghost (I walk like one as in, no one can hear when I am walking around a room and therefore get scared, according to my better half) – Happiness (in pursuit of) - Italian – Jogger (wannabe) - Keen to learn new things - Lonely (sometimes is good to be alone, it helps me to think and figure out what I want) - Melting pot (that’s my favorite English word) - Nostalgic (missing home, family and friends who live far away from me) - Organised? Well, sometimes. - Photographer (amateur) - Quiet - Realistic – Stubborn – Travel addict - Understanding (at least I try to be) - Vagabond (not as much as I’d love to be) - Wanderlust - X (my English is not good enough to know an adjective starting with X, lol) – Yawning (usually until 12pm when I wake up early
) – (sometimes) Zealous
OMG, this is by far the most difficult blogging award acceptance ever, it took me hours to find out something for every letter…
And here are my nominees…
I’m sure you’ll have some fun with the alphabetic thing…
The Beautiful Blogger Award is one of those I have already received so I am just going to link back to that post if you don’t mind
