Meet Deborah Moore #withTownHall

By Leeann Froese It’s a new week to introduce you to one of the fabulous personalities in the world #withTownHall!

This does not mean they work as part of our team, or are our client (although sometimes they are).

We just interact with so many amazing people that we want to expand networks and introduce them to you, and you to them. This week #withTownHall, we introduce you to a colleague of ours, Deborah Moore.

Deborah truly lives by her motto “Work hard, Play Harder”. When she is not following stories for Fairchild TV and Pogo 616 TV or chatting with a wide variety of interesting guests on Fairchild Radio, Deborah is out living her life to the fullest.

It is hard to not find yourself living vicariously through the adventures she posts on her blog, whether it be cruising down to Seattle for the weekend, snorkeling with sea turtles in Hawaii or following her culinary experiences in Paris.

Deborah is also one third of the Three Gourmigos, a group of friends who love to explore Vancouver’s food scene (and beyond), share their experiences, and who recommend some of the best dishes in the city to their audience.

With all of that said about Deborah, will you please help us give a big hello to her?

Meet Bosco Mo #withTownHall

By Leeann Froese It’s a new week to introduce an amazing person  #withTownHall!

If you are new to reading this blog or new to our company - we want you to know that we are proud that we have a big network, and we are continually meeting new and interesting personalities.

This week #withTownHall, we introduce you to Bosco Mo.

Although Bosco is relatively new to Vancouver, having moved from Sydney, Australia (where he has lived for 15 years), he has already become a seasoned vet in exploring what the city’s culinary scene has to offer.

You can catch Bosco hosting on Fairchild TV or on Fairchild Radio AM1470 Modern Deborah every 2 weeks where he covers food and restaurant events in the city and chats with Deborah Moore about interesting food-related topics.

He also has his own site, Kim Bosco Eatalreadeee where he writes (mostly) about food.

Related to this, Bosco is also part of the Three Gourmigos; with Deborah Moore and William Ho by his side, this trio seeks out the Vancouver’s best dishes. This project was borne from the pure enjoyment of sharing meals together and has emerged as a go-to guide for fantastic eateries in greater Vancouver. Bosco's reviews have been featured in publications such as The One (Sydney) and What's In Mag (Vancouver).

Bosco is also member of the SeaChoice Ambassador Group that promotes sustainable seafood and a Health and Sustainability Contributor at www.rusticbuds.com.

When Bosco isn’t living a food centric lifestyle, you can find him springing off a diving board, as he trains under the coaching of Mr Boxi Liang, who coached the Chinese and Canadian national teams. Bosco has represented Australia in the 2009 Master Games and Canada in the 2014 World Master Games.

With all of that said about Bosco, will you please help us give a big hello to him?

Meet William Ho #withTownHall

By Leeann Froese It’s a new week to introduce you to one of the fabulous personalities in the world #withTownHall!

This does not mean they work as part of our team, or are our client (although sometimes they are).

We just interact with so many amazing people that we want to expand networks and introduce them to you, and you to them. This week #withTownHall, we introduce you to William Ho.

William is a TV host with Fairchild TV and a Radio presenter with Fairchild Radio AM1470 / FM96.1.

William hosts the Leisure Talk segment on Fairchild TV which covers a wide range of interesting topics and features the equally wide range of guests. It is no suprise that William is equally as great on the radio, as he has a strong passion for music (and a large collection of vinyl) as well as an amazing voice (he recently joined Mimi Choo on stage for a harmonizing duet).

William holds his friends close as they are the most important fixture in his life. This love for his friends, as well as his passion for finding great dishes has led him, alongside Deborah Moore and Bosco Mo to form The Three Gourmigos. The Three Gourmigos love to explore Vancouver’s food scene, share their experiences, and recommend some of the best dishes in the city to their audience.

Deborah Moore also introduced her readers to 14 things you didn't know about William - so learn a bit more on him there too.

When he is not on the air or out on the town with The Three Gourmigos, William spends his time catching up on both Western and Chinese soap operas, listening to Chinese and Western songs, new and old, to prep for his show, or listening to his favourite artist; Barry Manilow.

With all of that said about William, will you please help us give him a big hello?
