Hi, Diane - welcome aboard! I've just added you as a writer. Your Portuguese food and travel piece would be a great fit, along with anything similar.

Would you like to submit it, now 'Iberospherical' should appear under your 'submit to publication options'?

As there hasn't been anything posted for a few days, it will appear on the top of the home page, and I'll put a link on the Medium Mastodon server which may get a few extra views, as well as the feed to the existing followers of the publication.

Just one thing re editing - would you mind if I stitched a few of the single sentence paragraphs into slightly longer paras by combining 2 or 3 together where I feel it makes sense and doesn't affect the impact? I know we all try to avoid long paragraphs on Medium because of the way they display as a 'wall of text', especially on a phone, but I think your article might flow better if some of those 1-sentence paras instead had 2 of the sentences together before the line break, without actually removing any full stops. What do you think?

Thanks again.

Matthew
