I miss it every day. If shit goes down, you'll find me in Uruguay

Shafik Meghji @ShafikMeghji

Now online, my latest piece for @NatGeoTravelUK focuses on Montevideo, Uruguay’s progressive, cultured and underrated capital. Thanks to @JLA_UK for helping with the research trip. https://t.co/P5U8bH8zPe

RT @muckrack: A great pitch isn’t about you—it’s about what matters to the journalist. PR coach Michael Smart shares these helpful tips:…

yesterday I hosted my first on-air radio news show with @PhillyCAM for Block by Block. a very nerve wracking but fruitful experience. give the episode a listen https://t.co/DgMU3d64ce

give her all your money

out of the ~$19K in expenses I reported, I'm only getting $1,000 back in tax returns. share your rates, call for a better system, take action. #freelanceisntfree

Tax season may be behind you, but don’t let the fruits of 2024’s labor go to waste! Contribute your rates to FSP’s Rate Sharing Survey—it only takes a few moments: https://t.co/fcIDQJU1hJ

super excited that my FIRST radio news story for @PhillyCAM Block by Block is now up! here's the story behind the rocky road to opening Baby's Kusina, a Filipino-American all-day cafe in Brewerytown, that took 3 years to happen https://t.co/iGGSVkrFQU

also I have to say @lolaannamendez's 2024 rate/pitch newsletter is what fostered me to write this month's tax season edition [its linked in mine]. transparency and accountability can help with empathy and support but also to fight for change https://t.co/wRvC7qEoL7

wrote about how I do money with a 2024 profit/loss summary for this month's tax season newsletter edition. hint: journalism doesn't pay the bills. https://t.co/OSHX2ESy90 https://t.co/SyUbceopP1

always stoked to head up to Asbury Park for the weekend. earlier this month we celebrated opening weekend of Judy and Harry's inside the St. Laurent Social Club. here's what to order https://t.co/81N8GQn2FQ https://t.co/GqtCun0hZs

so thrilled to see Mark's piece on Fredericksburg live. I had such a great time talking with and learning from him on this trip and reading this is article is a lovely reminder of why FBG is so special and why it should be protected from gentrification and displacement

Ever been to the Texas Hill Country? You should definitely go! My latest feature for East/West News Service is about German immigration to the Hill Country and how you can still enjoy that heritage today, 175 years later. https://t.co/qYXnOjPzgU

I love British food and truly have never had any bad British food. I credit NYC’s Tea and Sympathy and Philly’s Stargazy for spoiling me. My dream is to go to London for a long weekend just to eat (first at St. John) 🤞🏽

Despite a reputation for being bland, beige and soggy, traditional British fare is finally improving. https://t.co/DdJfKnsckm

absolutely floored with excitement to see my personal essay on mindful agave drinking for Full Pour magazine out in print this week. this story is a personal journey contemplating ethical and conscious alcohol consumption with guidance from agave experts https://t.co/kWIAl8FTKq https://t.co/3BBK1yyGIU

I visited and loved FBG last month but was so perplexed and concerned at the overtourism. It's a dilemma I constantly struggle with as a travel writer who's encouraged to cover these places. How do we combat displacement?

Fredericksburg, the jewel of the Hill Country, is lovelier than ever. Scenes from a town transformed: https://t.co/xKOB8AwMTU

in Philly there's more of first time restaurateurs, indie niche concepts, limited operating hours (to some personal annoyance), and increased transparency about boundaries from the top down. it's optimistic here but the complaints remain everything costs too much

Chris E. Crowley @chrisecrowley

spoke with some people about the restaurant industry five years after the shutdown. there was a sense then that everything could change, but what did?  “What happened? Genuinely, I’m trying to think where did the momentum go?” https://t.co/J5iMjjxrf1

Philadelphia needs to invest seriously in #visionzero. creating more car-free family-friendly zones can prove why it’s the most walkable city in the country once and for all. https://t.co/SutUEKusAW

The Center City District is bringing Open Streets back to Rittenhouse Row for four Sundays next month. Sandy Smith asks, "Why stop there?" https://t.co/Qf5j7ZdbYl

my latest for @resy: A love letter to Albanian family-run La Viola restaurants, Italian BYOB gems in Rittenhouse that have been my go-to date night spots for 20 years https://t.co/tZnFZskXSa https://t.co/dTdV67u6qj

for @visitphilly I researched the histories of Hispanic and Latinx populations across Greater Philadelphia and came back with a list of 25 culturally significant points of interest to explore. Here's the full guide: https://t.co/uzZ2nOIz2X
