LETTERS FROM OUR STUDENTS AND FRIENDS

Dear Miss Malvern

I except that you are probably melting the frostiness of the true “British” person but I believe there are many “half” bloods who secretly want to escape their “British ness” and welcome the easy escape you provide. Wales was always meant to be conquered! How about coffee lunchtime on Tuesday? (in Walthamstow?) I can come directly from work. Hugs Brother…………. Andrew

Oh, I wish I was there in London taking your classes. I'm not even mentioning the milongas afterwards. I know they are not the same as in BA (nothing is the same) but still, it would be fun dancing with you.
I try to go to milongas a lot in NY, 3-4 times a week. I went last night to Lafayette Grill milonga at 11:30 and at 1am it was over. I can't believe this NY crowd. Hmm, it's like these people don't understand the spirit of tango, right? Tonight is la National until 2am.Jak wasza podroz? Widze ze sie zadomowiliscie w Londynie. Wszystko przebiega wedlug planow?
Pozdrowienia wraz z caluskami. Un abrazo grande por Victor.

Hej Aisha!!!! Det låter underbart med Norrbotten och som att ni har en fantastisk vistelse där! Här är det kallt och eländigt som det brukar vara i juni/juli i Buenos Aires! Jag förstår att svenskarna är imponerade av din svenska! Kul! Njut av midnattssolen och sommaren och dansen. Kram Eva

que legal, aishinha, vc nao para em nenhum lugar mesmo hein amiga? sinceramente eu daria tudo pra poder estar viajando pelo mundo tambem, aqui tá o maior frio e eu não aguento mais, meu sangue brasileiro não dá pro frio. quem sabe em julho aconteça algum milagre.te mando miles de beijinho e saudades tbem.

Z Waszego planu podrozy wynika, ze powinniście być aktualnie w Walii. Jak podroz – nie czujecie się zmeczeni ciągłymi przenosinami?Bo pogoda to nikogo w Europie za bardzo nie rozpieszcza – tak paskudnego lata dawno nie było. Czekam na Was z kolacja, A

Cuanto tiempo sin noticias, leo en el facebook, que estáis en Londres o así, pero no contestaron mi ultimo mail,así no se si les llego, pero bueno, lo importante es que veo que siguen bailando y apasionando a las gentes por donde pasan con sus danzas, sus charlas y sobre todo con la buena onda, es lo que mas hace falta en el mundo, sigan repartiéndola, dentro de los pasos de baile inyecten amor y humor, y será la única manera de ir arreglando algo...la felicidad es el verdadero sentido de la vida, y cuando bailáis y dais la danza sois felices, si esto va unido a la intención de que todos sean felices, pues estáis ya haciendo un trabajo para la humanidad. Y porque no aprovecharlo verdad??? ya que es lo que quiere todo el mundo.Yo sigo dando mis conocimientos de la citlalmina ( se acuerdan la danza tibetano mexicana) ya hace años, solo un dia en la semana, y la verdad mi única intención es de que sirva para que haya armonía en esta tierra que nos toca vivir.El domingo que viene exponemos en el Palacio de Congreso, hice un cuadro de 5 partes, Soy tan mayor, y sin embargo veo que no se termina de aprender nunca....también es bueno...Bueno corto el royo, a ver si cuando estéis en Polonia escribís un poco mas en el blog, a ver que dice Victor de los ingleses..... cariños , la tía..........

I can't believe I'll be seeing you next week ! I'm waiting for you ! I want to show you some beaches , eat in nice places and ...... whatever is right for you. I look forward to hearing from youLove & big hugs H

hello there,
I will write i English as it is business language and in case I need to do a search by some word in the future.
It was lovely meeting you and having fun together - it was almost like a holiday in London experience.
As you realised, the house does not permit longer visits than 5 days and we were a a little anxious to resume the 'normal life' with all the boring things waiting to be done and I am sorry if that was showing a little , I was just so behind with things...

You were really lovely in every sense and my students loved you too, which means I can re-invite you as early as in 2 weeks time - subject to agreement on topics for the workshops.
I also liked your teaching style as it was very friendly and clear and educational (it is nice if my students hear the same things by someone else).
Privately you were also fun to be with and I dont remember ever meeting any woman so similar to me in everything. in the end, I even stopped being surprised by the similarities...
Enough compliments now and lets organise the workshops

Please think about any other interesting ideas and send a list by tomorrow as I must send an email to students Wednesday morning
Hope the journey to Walles was nice and look fwd to see you soon in London

Dear Aisha and Victor My name is S and I have been dancing for several years in C and B, I am very much looking forward to your class in M in July!! I wonder if you will be available to give me some private lessons while you are in C?? It would be a great opportunity for me, as we don't often have visiting teachers and usually I have to travel to B or D! .I look forward to meeting you both, I have been looking at the video on your website....magnificent! Besos Sxxxx

Hi Aisha & Victor,Re. Cardiff, my friend janette will be giving you a lift to Swansea/my house after the workshop ...... I may or maynot be there at the worhshop, depending if I have had to work on that day and I want to prepare supper for you. By the way we will be going to Janette's house for cocktails on Mon 13th before going on to the restaurant (table booked). I have checked your schedule for Sat & Sun Swansea Dance Festival - I know the times I have to get you to places. This is really exciting! On Friday evening ( at the LatinAmerice Assoc workshop/performance) I have arranged with Patrick that he brings Fanny's accordian to you on that evening (Fri).I'll talk to you about other things when you are here ..... by the way we are also going to a nice restaurant Sat evening right on the beach ! My invitation. Hope you are having a brilliant time in London ....See you in a few days !Hugs H

Hej på er båda! STORT JÄTTETACK FÖR SENAST!

Ni finns också i mitt och vårt minne! Nu blir det inte 2 år till nästa gång!Och för min del, och jag tror även för Elisabets del, tyckte jag att den andra privatlektionen var väldigt bra, gav mig en del uppenbarelser! Hoppas att det märktes när jag dansade med dig på måndagkvällen. Jag märkte också att jag släpper loss mera i milongan än i tangon, det är mindre huvud i milongan, tänker ännu för mycket på stegen i tangon, kanske för att jag har för liten repertoar för att kunna improvisera obehindrat. Det ni säger om att lämna huvet hemma och dansa med hjärtat är helt rätt. Som tur är har jag möjlighet att träna vidare med Elisabeth! Härlig att dansa med!

é verdade amiga, não podia ser melhor esta parada na casa da sua mãe, no seu aniversário, todos vcs juntos. é muito mágico. te mando um beijo enorme e boa viagem pros próximos destinos. cariño beso pra su familia e L, S.

That is your swedish lesson for today!You know on Friday came a young women/girl with her parents, her father showed a belt from Argentina and I mentioned about you and Victor, her sister has been living at your place in BA, teaching you swedish and learning spanish and tango from you! Her last name might be Printzell! What a coincidence, I showed her pictures of the two of you. That young girl is working in a goldmine outside Skellefteå, and she also dances tango (5 years, good!) so we took a tango in the shop!Today I and Inger will go to visit Elisabet and Börje in their home outside Skellefteå, she is throwing a party.Well I will think about BA, got 20.000sek as a part of the price I got (for making Norrbotten known in Sweden), not bad at all! The founder of the ICE-hotel has also got that price, so I am in good company! Pictures from the Festspelkonsert given at the samt time.Yesterday I and Inger got a fancy pickup for a local outdoor theatre, one of them wanted to contgratulate me to the price in that manner, (just a tip - I would not mind being picked up by someone in BA for a milonga in BA!!! private jet?)Hope all is working well for you and those two couples I introduced to you are wealthy, Thomas and Eva Wallsten are millionaires and the other couple are not poor! Both couples have done a introductory course with us some years ago. My longterm thinking is that they will want to visit you in BA, take classes and also that Thomas shall engage you for some show in their shopping galleria in Piteå, the newest and biggest, maybe next time. I have already talked to him about it before you came this year.I cannot resist thinking about marketing and business!Kram från Jan (och säkert från Elisabet! jag vet att hon var glad för att Victor dansade med henne i måndags!)

Ha ha! :-D That is sooo funny! The tangoworld is small isn't it!? Your Jan met my parents and my sister Lena apparently. Dancing tango in the shop!...
It was a pleasure to have you staying at my place! And Thank You Aisha for making me see things in a diffrent way. I have been rather sad for some time now and that made me think in another way and made me feel better! :-)
Kram Malin

Dear Aisha and Victor, I am one of the enthusiastic tango learners that is part of T E in Cardiff Last Sunday Jeanette and Heather told me about your brilliant tango dancing and that you would be coming to Swansea next week I am writing to find out - are you doing lessons next Thursday evening at the Dylan Thomas Centre? Any chance for a private one? In hope and with best wishes F

Hola!
(You see, I can a couple of words in Spanish!)I'm glad I have had the opportunity of having you as guests in my house, a part of our picknick and as travel company! Thanks to you I've met a lot of lovely people as well as giving me the opportunity of improving my vals and milonga. It's a pity I don't remember a thing!But I know the knowledge is there, it will pop up from my memory at a moment I don't expect. Hopefully sooner than later. (That's not only for my memory, that's also for our meeting again.)
I will follow your tour through Europe on the internet!
Vile gives you his common welcome bark!

Hej Aisha och Victor!
Jag har varit inne på Internet och tittat på Brzeg. Staden verkar trevlig och det skulle ha varit roligt att komma dit när ni är där. Men det får bli en annan gång. På torsdag åker jag till Berlin och är där till tisdag. Då åker jag till Valencia och är där tre veckor. När jag åker hem via Berlin stannar jag där några dagar igen. Jag är tillbaka i Malmö tisdagen den 14 juli. Kanske vi kan ses i andra halvan av juli eller någon gång i augusti?
Jag önskar er en riktigt trevlig midsommar och en god fortsättning på tangoturnén!
Kramar!
Leif

Vile has barked for the last time... .....today!I had to take him to the vets today, because he encountered more problems.But he got the chance this morning to bark, when we took his last walk!Have a good time i GB! SE

hola!Lo que es el prejuicio: vi la dirección de mail, leí la priemr línea y pensé: "Garufa podría haber hecho otra combinación: o bien Stockholm o Estocolmo, no ese híbrido..."Claro, cuando proseguí y leía que "miraban mis piernas" me dije: no, no es Garufa!Sumérgete en el sueco, disfruta de la Vida y se muy Feliz (by the way, muy bonitas tus fotos del Sur!)Prudish hug? They may be perceived as being uncomfortable with sexuality, nudity, alcohol, drug use or mischief. That's what you are offering to me?No way: lusty and lascivious hug! and both: we are very comfortable specially with sexuality, nudity and alcohol!O

We can imagine, your trip was quite hard and Riga balsam could help.
Places we visited together: a hill Gaizins, lake Kakitis ("a cat", it lookes like a cat from highgt), than Ergli, nearest biggest to our place and Jumurda with lake Jumurda and our "Brille", remember. Dace Viestrus

Hugs to you! You are the real woman in my perception - not too saint, not too avantgard - just a COCKTAIL...not too sweet, not too bitter - SPECIAL !!! H
