Rep Your City

Baltimore really is the greatest city. That statement is super weird coming from me since I couldn't wait to leave Baltimore. But as "they" say, "you don't know what you have till it's gone." I didn't realize how great the city was until I became a tourist in my city, which I actually encourage everyone to do. Take the time to go out and explore your city. Visiting historical sites, eating at local and small restaurants conjures up that long lost appreciation and love for one's city.

It's no secret I was in Baltimore for the holiday. While there, I vlogged and took a stroll in downtown harbor. The views and the chilly breeze helped me reflect on that long lost love for my city. I wish more people knew what Baltimore has to offer. Us Baltimoreans are more than what the world has credited us. We do love crabs and Old bay seasoning, but we offer so much more!
