Blog Flamenco

Welcome to Flamenco Export’s blog!  As one of the top, international, online flamenco product stores, we felt compelled to provide our shoppers and curious parties who just want to browse our site with some of the most interesting flamenco related news on the Net. 

As we’re based in Madrid, Flamenco Export’s blog readers will develop a wonderful sense of the essence of the Spanish capital’s amazing flamenco scene.  But from time to time, we’ll also be stepping outside of Madrid to bring you coverage of some of flamenco’s most important events.  And we’re not limiting ourselves to written coverage.  We hope to bring you some of the best photographs and video available of worldwide flamenco events.

You’ll have noticed that this blog’s tagline is “las historias de la Vaca Lola,” which translates to “Lola the cow’s stories.” I suppose that makes me Lola the Cow. My legal name is Justine Bayod Espoz, and I have the pleasure of playing the part of your news purveyor. I am a photojournalist covering Spanish arts and culture for magazines and Web sites around the world, and flamenco just happens to be one of my passions and one of my specialties. That’s why from here on out, I will be blogging from Monday-Friday about my favorite subject and hopefully one of yours. And I am going to be doing so in four languages (Spanish, English, French and Japanese) with more than a little help from the excellent and international staff at the Flamenco Export offices.

I look forward to sharing my flamenco stories and adventures with you and hope you’ll write to me with your suggestions and requests. You can reach me via email at Justine@ToritoMedia.com. This is going to be fun!

Saludos,

Justine
