Dear Journal…. 😀 It has been ten months since my last post, starting out on this new journey and creating a business. It has been such a hard slog. I have been fortunate to of had business referrals from people I have worked with previously. Though finding net new business has been a learning curve. …
As I sit here waiting for my flight from Heathrow, I watching the sunset quite literally, over my time here in London. After six years, it feels like it is time to try something new. Next year is full of potential and a number of new possibilities have started to show themselves. Time will tell …
So this week, I have finally started my spanish lessons… By joining an 5-week intensive class here in London. To say the course is immersive, is to put it lightly. Everything is spoken in Spanish and you have to attempt to work through it. I assume the thought process is to force you to learn …
