As mentioned in my last post, I am one of the organisers of Eat Drink Blog 3, the Australian Food & Drink Bloggers Conference, which will take place in Adelaide later this year.
I attended Eat Drink Blog 2 last year in Sydney and had a fantastic time. I remember walking into the conference room full of bloggers packing SLRs, smartphones and Ipads and thinking, ‘yes! I’ve found my people.’
OK, I can be a little dramatic at times. But the relief of finding a group of people who ‘got’ me was immense.
I didn’t have to explain to this group why I love shopping at markets, why I had a cupboard full of food props, why I often ate my food cold because I was photographing it or why I spent hours cooking, writing, editing, posting, tweeting and instagramming about food.
They got it. They understood. They were driven by the same passion, creativity and curiosity.
