Helena-Reet: Again off to Morocco next week with my colleagues!
NordenBladet – In the year 2017/2018 I intend to look deeply into further developing the Ohmygossip.fi web page and launch some rearrangements. As I have said before, the OHMYGOSSIP portals have joined the Scandinavian media affiliated group and within the coming year we will convey all the Ohmygossip pages under NordenBladet. I would like to recruit more wonderful bloggers (drop me an e-mail, should you wish to join us!) and leave the topics about society and politics for the NordenBladet.fi site. The layout scheme for our Estonian web magazines is largely settled and the same is awaiting to be performed with the Finnish and Swedish portals.
Since the homes of our co-authors, translators, board partners etc are scattered all over Scandinavia the accordingly we hold meetings infrequently. And the best solution for that would be a travel outing – be it in Estonia, in Finland, Sweden or faraway. As a rule, I plan one on one meetings with companions in a hotel or in a restaurant, this has so far been most efficient. My bold dream is of course to open up separate offices in Estonia, Finland and Sweden one fine day, however, at this point of time it is financially unavailable and neither is it currently reasonable. Also I have in mind the future trend of arranging regular travel meetings that various Norden Bladet editing team members might partake. At the moment I am further encouraging our cooperation with tourism ministries and tourism bureaus in Morocco and Israel – these are very pleasant people and very professionally minded. This far it has been a very healthily progressing cooperation and I am hoping to expand our common enterprises.
NordenBladet is a multifaceted platform and in addition to the routine output regarding daily news, politics, health topics and home columns it pays remarkable attention to tourism issues. The Scandinavians like to travel and therefore people constantly seek to find travel stories and tourism related information from our multilingual portals. Also, people are keen on the entertainment section and the opinion and reviews from blog writers that can be found on Ohmygossip sites under NordenBladet are highly valued.
Last year I have taken various team members and business partners to several trips to Morocco (Agadir) and the journeys have been very splendid. Joining me to the same Agadir business visit was Ohmygossip.ee co-author and Ohmygossip Couture long time model Marianna Link and Ohmygossip.fi blog writer Tuija Järvinen. I very much hoped that our Finnish to Estonian route translater and co-author Marju Rõmmel would join us but she was bound to staying at home with her baby son. Then again I mysel couldn’t attend the second trip, but I sent a delegation of three business partners. This year’s travel to Morocco is within the framework of Ohmygossip.fi and accompanying me I have a crew consisting of Ohmygossip.fi blogger Tuija as previously, then Ohmygosspi.fi Estonian to Finnish route translator Risto and then also Estella Elisheva, who is in charge of OHMYGOSSIPteen development. The plan was to have with us Ohmygossip.fi blogger Pia Sarkkinen, but other professional obligations prevented her from joining.
We will be travelling to Morocco (Marrakech) via Helsinki and Stockholm, and on our way back we will test the Norwegian direct flight Marrakech (RAK) – Helsinki (HEL).
However, the Morocco travel itself will be depicted closely in the next post!
