And the #franscHHoekmoments Winner is…
Did you enter our #franscHHoekmoments Instagram video competition? Read more to see if you’re the lucky winner of our grand prize for the best Instagram video entry!
Throughout the month of April, we ran a competition on Instagram encouraging fans of Franschhoek to share their very best #franscHHoekmoments. The competition was simple; all you had to do was to film 15 seconds of your #franscHHoekmoments and upload the clip to Instagram, tagging #franscHHoekmoments to enter.
We saw some beautiful entries and deciding on a winner was a very tough task! We asked the South African iger community to help us judge the entries, to keep things fair.
