The long, strange trip continues...
After returning to London for a short (and wonderfully relaxing) time at Paul's parent's house, we headed north to Scotland for the incredible Edinburgh Festival and a bit of much-needed work, thanks to our friends Ben and Linda... Paul effortlessly pulled off a series of Master Class Pilates workshops and scored us a bit of dosh to fund our return to the UK. We also had the opportunity to catch a few fantastic shows, including the Parisian dance troupe Mambo Chicos (or is it Chicos Mambo?) and the awesome Jewish folk-funk fusion band Moishe's Bagel.
I am currently back in the States, visiting family and friends in Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and Pennsylvania, but will be returning to the UK on 9 October... complete with my fresh Settlement Visa! With the help of a few amazing individuals (you know who you are), Paul and I managed to secure a Civil Partnership visa for me to re-enter the UK with the intent to settle and permanently reside... This is BIG NEWS for us and means we are finally free from endless worries about my visa status... and free to get married! I promise to keep everyone posted about dates and color schemes, but for now, we are just thankful to be able to make Sussex our permanent home without the hassle of immigration issues.
Thanks for reading my blog, posting comments, and keeping in touch. I hope you have enjoyed reading about our trip as much as I've enjoyed documenting it! Contact me anytime and lots of love, Jason x
