A long time ago I had a
very good holiday in the Canaries. I told Tripadvisor about it.
Because I gave information about the hotel, nearby restaurants, bus
routes from the airport, fares, taxi fares to the nearby town and
things like that. I attracted a good readership.
I then knew that a
review is sometimes about more that a single experience.
In all the years I
think I only wrote a few time about questionable places.
In the Canaries being
asked for cash to pay a large bill.
Or recently, in Dublin,
when I observed families with children being refused admission to a
pub/dining premises. “No Children” the owner roared as he barred
entry at the door.
Or when I found ants in
my bed in Sorrento. I had a few words about the hotel laundering my
clothes when I also found them in my carry on luggage stored in the
wardrobe. But got the usual Italian stall.
But otherwise I had
great experiences, in all the places I visited.
So now they tell me
they have awarded a badge to me to show I have over 20,000 readers.
That's great – now
how do I translate that following to my book readers?
Write a travelogue you
fool!
