The Virginia Hype Girl: Foodie, Creator and Travel Blogger
Hi Im Krystle aka “the Virginia hype girl”, a lifelong Virginian sharing travel inspiration, foodie spots, and hidden gems across my home state and beyond. As a proud small town resident, I enjoy promoting Virginia’s tourism while showcasing my favorite small businesses and brands. I love Virginia and represented the state as Miss Virginia- National American Miss 2006, and Miss Beautiful International Model 2007 promoting my platform of volunteerism.
I’ve made it my mission to spotlight Virginia’s rich history, picturesque landscapes, and the local businesses that make it all so special. As a travel blogger, creator and food photographer, I share captivating stories that take readers on a scrumptious journey through new destinations, immersing them in the vibrant flavors, cultural traditions, and unique culinary experiences that define each locale. From fresh seafood caught off Virginia’s shores to beloved small town eateries, my work paints a rich picture of local food culture and the unforgettable moments that come with savoring every bite.
Every dish has a story, every destination holds a memory, and every small business deserves to be celebrated. My goal is to fuel the wanderlust of my readers, inspiring fellow travelers and food enthusiasts to embark on their own culinary adventures at local restaurants, book that dream getaway, or visit the incredible mom-and-pop businesses that make our communities so special. Let’s embark on a flavorful adventure together. Grab a coffee or tea, get cozy, and explore my little corner of the web as I live my best life through cuisine and travel!
