premio (1)

So honoured to receive this award (despite the typo! 😉 )… it’s still amazing to me that what started as a hobby 9 years ago has turned into a growing business, helping visitors learn about and enjoy the wonderful gastronomy of my adopted city. Being recognised by the Gourmets de Sevilla and Fogones de Sevilla organisations is a huge deal. This award was for best personal promotion of Sevilla’s gastronomy via my blogs, social media and food tours. And I was in excellent company as my friend Juan Gomez (La Azotea) and Michelin star chef Julio Fernández (Abantal) also won awards that evening. premio (2)As you can see, Morcilla had to get her nose into the SWAG.premio (3)Too bad they didn’t let this person paint the plaque. 😛

snapchat

It turns out that I signed up for Snapchat ages ago, but I never did anything with it because it seemed like a waste of time putting stuff online that ends up disappearing. For me the most frustrating thing Instagram is that you can’t archive stuff (which is why I also share EVERYTHING on Tumblr – I like that I can search by the month and all the pics I’ve put anywhere online show up). So why would I bother putting up pics that just go away? Also, not being able to use my photo library feels limiting. And so on… and so, no Snapchat for me. Except that lately I see that so many people are using it, and especially companies. What’s in it for them? Then I came across this article the other day and it got me thinking that I should start using this tool… Snapchat Features You Didn’t Know Existed

I’m not totally convinced though. Anyone else out there using Snapchat who would like to sing its praises? I’m all ears.
