Depuis l’époque de Shakespeare, la vie culturelle de Londres vibre au diapason de ses activités artistiques pluridimensionnelles.

Google Maps im Tourismus – Monetarisierung ohne Folgen? | Innovation and trends in tourism | Scoop.it

Nouvelles façons de vendre et de se faire connaître | Innovation and trends in tourism | Scoop.it

Inventer de nouvelles façons de travailler, rien de tel pour vendre et se faire connaître… je l’ai encore vérifié cet été en Sud-Gironde, à Saint-Macaire et à Verdelais, en participant aux marchés des producteurs de pays qui fleurissent sous le patronage de la Chambre d’agriculture de ce département, pendant la saison estivale.
