!Hola!
Long time no speak to all. I am deeply intrigued to know what you’re all up to now (oh, those good old phrasal verbs!) I imagine collectively, there’s a good amount of galavanting across the globe being done, and a fair bit of tefl teaching too I hope!

Dylan, did you make it to mighty Mexico finally?! Morgane, how was the Caribbean and will you be tacking horses this summer? Lisa, I hope you found your cat in good health, and Josie the Caff (as my neighbours in London town would say!) Alex, I hope you’re in practice for freshers mayhem! Did you make it to China? Alex girl, did you return to Valencia with your mates after Fallas? Diana, how’s Granada? If you’re still there could you ask the Alhambra to kindly return the piece of my heart it stole! Melissa and Hans, did you stay in Barcelona - if so, I might pay you a visit soon. Jakub, wherefore art thou Jakub - Ireland? Poland? Espana? Tell me all your news.

I’m wardrobe supervising in the West End on a Burlesque show which is hilarious - lots of corsets, garters and nipple tassles, and not a lot else! The show ends in a few weeks, then I’ll be travelling back and forth to Germany designing and making costumes for an educational theatre company that teaches German school kids English through theatre - right up my street! I’m also moving to a beautiful new falt in the South East of London very soon. You are all always very welcome to visit if you find yourselves in the Big Smoke - London Town.
Love and Best wishes to you all. XXX Menna

Hi all

Thanks for the email Menna, was good to hear you’re having fun. I’ve been in Valencia for the past 2 months teaching English which has definitely had its ups and downs. I now have a job in oxford teaching mexicans for the summer until I go travelling in september…look out world here I come! Am moving back to Valencia when I get back in January.I am totally in love with that place!! Hope everyone is well and happy

lots of love A xxx
