Week Two at The Shire
What’s going on in Abergavenny this week?
Let’s go through a hypothetical situation:
You want to discover the best local spots in The Shire and truly immerse yourself in its culture. Now, you've got two options:
1. Follow a mainstream travel guide, plastered with generic recommendations.
Or:
2. Follow a local food blogger who’s spent years uncovering the indies and unique experiences in The Shire.
Most people might opt for the mainstream travel guide.
But think about this:
The travel guide could be so removed from the authentic experiences, that you might as well be reading about a different place.
On the other hand, following a local food blogger?
They’ve got their finger on the pulse of The Shire's independent hospitality scene.
They get your curiosity, your local cravings, AND your desire for genuine shit.
They’re you… but just a few steps ahead, having explored all the nooks and crannies.
That’s the secret sauce.
Discovering from someone who’s navigated the same trails you want to explore, not from someone showcasing the tourist traps.
It’s like trying to find the heart of The Shire by reading a national tourist magazine instead of hearing firsthand stories from a local.
That’s why in our newsletter, we don’t dish out cookie-cutter advice.
We’re locals who have delved deep into The Shire’s vibrant community.
We’ve been where you are—struggling to find reliable info, feeling overwhelmed by conflicting reviews, and missing out on authentic experiences. And now, we’re here to share the very best of The Shire with you.
No digital deserts. No generic recommendations.
Just real, insider connections from people who know and love The Shire.
Ready to stay informed and become part of a thriving community?
You'd better keep reading then 😉
Speak soon,
