My daughter has been managing a ski chalet in Meribel in the French alps for the winter, taking a career break from being a maths teacher. She is nursing a broken heart after being dumped by her fiance in September.
After much soul searching she has decided to accept an offer from her employers to go to Italy for the summer, to be part of the team managing the resorts around Lake Garda, a beautiful area. It will be a challenge, as although she is bilingual in French and fluent in Spanish, she doesn't speak a word of Italian! Then she thinks she will do another winter ski season before going back to teaching.
She is very happy, seems well on the road to recovery, and though I am anxious about her taking so much time out, I am really pleased that she is doing well. So maybe I will take a week in the Italian mountains this summer!
