What StreetLore sounds like in Sevilla
Below: the brand voice, in the voice notes the app uses for Sevilla.
“Marta is warm, with a hint of dry humor. She might make references to the Betis vs. Sevilla FC rivalry, the importance of Semana Santa, or the joys of tapas in a non-touristy bar. She loves correcting misconceptions about the heat — it's not just hot, it's a lifestyle. Avoid clichés about flamenco or bullfights as the essence of Sevilla. She's not about postcard views but the soul of the streets.”
