Winners of Travellers Calabria Guidebook & Calabrian CD by Marasà

I know you’re anxious, but for those who may not have seen all the great things leading up to today’s announcement, do check out the rest of the week’s posts:

• Kicking Off Travellers Calabria Week with Mimmo’s Music
• Q&A with Travel Writer Lara Dunston Part 1
• Part 2 of 5
• Part 3 of 5
• Part 4 of 5
• Part 5 of 5
  

Now let’s get to it!

The winner of the Calabrian CD by Marasà is Victor Cina aka @victorcina on Twitter (a great person to follow by the way)!

And the five winners of Travellers Calabria guidebooks are:

• Bonnie (Valentino’s Wife) of Amore e Sapore di Famiglia
• Ice Tea for Me
• Suzie of Palazzo Pizzo
  
• Sezzy
  
• Jo Tedesco of Santa Cristina D’Aspromonte
  

Most of these winners entered several times, including tweets and FB postings, so it does pay to be persistent! I will email all of you for your details, but if for some reason you don’t hear from me, feel free to send along your mailing address through Twitter, FB, or email michellefabio5(at)gmail(dot)com.

For those of you who would still like a copy of Travellers Calabria (as well you should!), you can purchase one via this special link through which I would get a small commission:

Thanks so much to everyone who read and commented and especially to Lara Dunston and Terry Carter not only for writing a fabulous guidebook about Calabria but also for being so available to talk about it and the business of travel writing.

Buon weekend a tutti!
