XSTIG: Allphones Completes Food Trippers’ Essentials

"Post a photo/video or it didn't happen" is a mantra in the Internet Age.
So if you enjoy a particular dish in a place you've visited,
go ahead and take a snapshot then share on the Web.
 It's much easier to do this if you avail of sweet deals on smartphones
and post-paid plans at Allphones stores.

Summer is a time not only for visiting new or favorite places but also discovering a sense of locality through the food they serve. Eating local food is not only a delicious experience but also a way of getting to know the people and the culture in the area. A vacation is more fun when we don’t just enjoy the local food but also take pictures of these dishes—along with ourselves enjoying them. Thanks to our smartphones and mobile Internet, we become instant foodie trippers just by clicking that camphone and sharing on social media like Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook.

How do we make our food trips even more enjoyable? Well, first of all, it’s better to do research. For example, when you’ve picked a place to go to, do a Google search on the local cuisine. From then on, the rest is up to your taste. However, this leads us to our second “Food Trippers’ Essential”.
