BAY AREA MOMS
I write for Bay Area Moms, a popular Instagram account & blog, with resources for parents & caregivers of children in the Bay Area. I mostly contribute with South Bay outings, restaurants & staycations but you’ll also find my suggesting travel ideas & day trips drivable from the area.
Hi! I am Kristina (aka Million Miler Mom). I live in the San Francisco Bay Area with my husband and 3 kids and we love to explore, near & far. I have visited 72 countries and all 7 continents and love sharing ideas with other travelers.
How did I become Million Miler Mom?
Back in 2003, I was planning to study abroad in South Africa and, at the time, the only carrier that flew between the US and South Africa was South African Airways. Since it was a long-haul, the travel agent helping my classmates and I recommended signing up for the Delta SkyMiles program since we would earn the equivalent of a domestic round trip. I graduated college and started to travel on my own and was about 75% Delta/25% other carriers. I soon learned that the key to earning miles and getting the upgrades was loyalty and I soon became an almost exclusive Delta flyer. I achieved Medallion status in my mid-20s and have maintained some level of Elite status for about 15 years (having 3 kids has set me back a few times, but I have always gotten back on track quickly). Between my Delta credit cards, my loyalty to Delta (and the SkyTeam Alliance), I am fully reaping the benefits!
