GOOD COPYWRITING PULLS AT PEOPLE'S EMOTIONAL STRINGS
​
For example, you may have a baby product and desire to reach out to new mothers. We can all assume that most mother’s maternal instincts are to love, protect and nurture their baby. However, a copywriter needs to Be the Mother , and understand how they feel, what they crave and what they need.
By effective storytelling, we ignite consumer instinct by demonstrating to the mother how much easier their life would be with your baby products. Then we show them how they can get their hands on your awesome goods!
WHERE TO TAKE YOUR LAPTOP: St kilda’s Best WIFI Cafes
In St Kilda, you have to hunt around for the hangouts with delicious coffee and free WIFI. They are few and far between.
​
But it’s better than sprawling out on your bed like Carrie Bradshaw and even if you don’t get any work done, you can still sip on delicious flat whites and gaze out the window reflectively.

Here are the best workplaces in St Kilda that I have found...
THE SUNDAY AGE
A flying visit to Jambiani, Zanzibar
Tired of trudging through sooty Dar es Salaam markets to fill in time during a 2-day flight layover, I found a Wi-Fi cafe and checked in on Facebook. Luckily for me, a friend immediately came to my rescue and insisted I took a 20-minute flight over to Zanzibar.
With some quick research and flying off a few emails, I found a room for two nights and was on my way to the chilled-out beach of Jambiani.
Arriving at the Zanzibar airport, a willing taxi driver whisked me off for AUS $50 (recommended rate online).
As we approached Jambiani, the roads got narrower and bumpier and the buildings became more primitively constructed with mud walls, threaded palm leaves for shelter over the window openings and thatched roofs galore.
Squeezing down a skinny, dusty lane, I was thrilled to see that my booked accommodation really was at the beachfront. The front lawn was sand, and a hammock swinging between 3 coconut trees was virtually over the edge of the breaking water.

1) THE CLAW BATH: FOR ROMANTICS BIG AND SMALL
If a little romance is in the air then the four-claw tub is the solution. With charming ornate feet, this bath stands independently like a sexy Greek goddess.
Why not scatter her a few rose petals; turn on Beethoven’s Fur Elisa; light a shimmering scented candle and step into her delicious...

VOLUNTARY TOURISM:
HOW BLINKERED WAS I?!
​
A starry-eyed single white female. That was me when I announced to family and friends I was heading to Uganda; a decision based on an appealing brochure seducing me into travelling as a paying volunteer. My destination would be a managed orphanage where I would be able to “share skills, ideas, values, languages and cultural differences, making a meaningful contribution to children's lives”.
​
The brochure stated that my payment to them would cover registration fees, collection from the airport (which is another story in itself), and my basic living expenses. I was going to make a significant difference. I was going to share my painting, sewing and gardening skills with the children; I was going to give them the love they were missing from their absent parents; I was going to share travel stories that would open their eyes to possibilities beyond their limits.

My romantic expectations were instantly thrown into disarray ... read more

A BRAND NEW EVENING AT THE ESPY
As we stepped into the Espy for our first taste of the new renovations, a flood of memories melted away. Gone were the usual eclectic clientele, the dirty mayhem of mismatched furniture, and stale beer tangs that once upon a time reeked from the floorboards.
It was an evening of brand new memories: glamorous girls in fancy frocks and heels; guys with shiny shoes and gelled back hair; tastefully coordinated furniture; fruity cocktails perfuming the new and improved Espy.
Before we immerse ourselves any further into the unfamiliar and reborn Espy, let’s step back... read more
