Homeward Bound: #3

Tearfully bidding adieu to my lovely Jen -
merci beaucoup mon amie...


A MINI PROFILE
  • Hometown: San Jose, California (but moving back to New York City)
  • Time lived in London: 2 years & 3 months
  • Our introduction: On a blind "friend" date over rosé wine at a pub near Lancaster Gate tube station in London - Jen's Uncle Harry is Brandina's parents' neighbour in Kona
  • Something we've shared: Everything that defines quality "girl time," and a mutual love for the simple pleasures - frozen yogurt in Notting Hill, long walks, holiday lights, mulled wine, Wheat Thins, colour-coding our to-do lists, Grey's Anatomy...
  • Something she's taught me: To embrace the British words like you're a local - rubbish, lovely, heaps, bits, bobs, and brilliant to name a few. Oh, and the best websites for watching American television shows online from London.
  • Our newly acquired hand-me-down: Two wonderfully-plush bed pillows and a handful of UK-formatted DVDs!
  • Our next meeting place: Somewhere Stateside...
