Today it has been a long day travelling. I got up at 5:30 am and departed from Madrid at 9:30am. The plane landed at 12:00 am, then I took two buses from the London Heathrow to Cheltenham.  Stuart picked me up at the station in the centre of the city.   I arrived at my new host family home at 04:00pm.

My hosts are Stuart and Yen who are very friendly. They have a son, Lee, who is nearly 1 year old.
Yen is a Vietnamese woman, she has cooked a Vietnamese dish for us.
Stuart is a Geography teacher. We are three Maths teachers in the same house, Sandrine from France, Laura from Italy and me, Belén from Spain.
