The Society of American Travel Writers Foundation announced their picks for the prestigious Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Awards, and The Window Seat took home the Gold for Travel Blogs.

It's quite humbling to look through the list of winners in categories ranging from travel magazines to travel news, spotting our blog named alongside honorable publications such as USA Today and Budget Travel. A big thanks to SATWF, the judges at University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill School of Journalism and Mass Communication and to our readers for perusing our pages. We are honored!
