    Hi everybody,

    Newbie here. My name is Alan - I originate from the North of England, am currently living in Oxfordshire, and I have a rented house in Valencia where I shall be living next year with my beautiful wife Hanna (who is also a newbie here.)

    Err...what else?

    I am a teacher by profession - specialist subjects are Maths, English and French. Been a headteacher here in England - currently own my own Education Centre - but I am willingly 'chucking it all in' to be in beautiful Negros with Hanna.

    I am looking forward very much to becoming an active member here and meeting some new friends. Anyone who lives near or in Valencia is welcome to come for a San Mig. when I return in January.

    BTW. Despite my occupational standing, I am somewhat crazy as anyone who knows me will testify. :smile:

    Thank you for reading.

    Al.:smile:

    Well, I was also a "teach", Economics, Anthropology, History, Psychology, now there is a crazy mix huh? But mostly I am a student, looking to learn and assimilate here, a good place as you will no doubt discover.
    hope to meet you.

    Thanks for your message John Boy.

    I won't give lines - old hat! But I shall willingly correct homework. :smile: I shall need something to do next year.
    In fact, I shall be looking to do teaching/tuition when I get back.

    BTW - I notice you are from the Wirral. One of my best friends lives in Spital.

    Al. :smile:

    Alan,, curious to how you came to choose Valencia/Dumaguete, I presume your wife Hanna is not from Philippines.
    My wife and I will be visiting Negros for the first time late next year.
    Anyway hope you both enjoy your time there.

    PS.Spital is not far from our place,nice area
