Go Loco Podcast - Episode 11 Ole.. Interviewing Alejandra & Anthony

[AdrianLunsong]

¡Ole! It is with great pleasure that I introduce you to Go Loco Podcast’s Episode 11, a fun filled episode with two excellent guests; @AlejandraMaria from Ayamonte and @Phunky from Barcelona!

It is their second time attending Connect Live so I happen to know them pretty well! I first met Alejandra in 2017 when we boarded the same flight from Amsterdam to San Francisco together with @Andras_H . We had a great chat on the plane, getting to know each other and then met up with other Local Guides at the airport, @Shirni and her husband, and who could forget @SoniaK .

As for Anthony (@Phunky), it was only last year in 2018 when I first met him. I can’t say I remember how our first “Hello” went, but he has a sense of humour that I appreciate and we ended up laughing a lot at anything and everything! Needless to say, meeting these two again was a pleasure and I’m very thankful for the opportunity! So it was a no brainer to get these two together for a bit a chat about Connect Live and the Local Guides program!

And to put things in context, this recording was done on the Monday 11th November, a day before Connect Live. It was recorded almost immediately after I interviewed @StephenAbraham and @Marianis which you can listen to in the previous episode.

This episode is part of a series of interviews done before, during and after Connect Live. The idea behind them is to allow you, our lovely listeners, a chance to get to know some of the attendees a bit better, hear their personal stories and backgrounds and get a sense of who they are. I hope that they will inspire you and help you in your journey in this Local Guides program. In any case, ENJOY!!

Really nice to hear the Spanish delegation again - although one sounds a bit more Spanish than the other… Can you guess who I mean @AlejandraMaria @Phunky ?

[AlejandraMaria]

Jajajajaja @JanVanHaver I love your sense of humor!!!

Our Antonio, @Phunky,sounds everyday more and more Spanish and he is learning to dance flaminco, olé

Wonderful @AdrianLunsong , thanks for sharing. The CL19 podcast series is just amazing.

Thank you @AlejandraMaria and @Phunky for being part of it, well done!

[AdrianLunsong]

Always a pleasure @AlejandraMaria

@JanVanHaver I’m loving your … I think I ‘heard’ you mention it before… but I’m old and memory is not so great! Also, I wish modern keyboards came with an emoji key and standardised support for all emojis!

@LuigiZ guess who’s going to be in the next episode?!

[JanVanHaver]

Most emoji’s are not working here at the moment, but in extensive test I ran, it turned out that some still were, like the one, so @AlejandraMaria and me have been using it in lieu of the non-working ones since then…

[AlexandreCampbell]

Hey @AdrianLunsong , it was awesome listening again @AlejandraMaría saying that she is from the South of Spain with proud and energy. Congratulations for great participation, my tocaya (same name).

Phunky or Antonio (it is my father’s name) congratulations also for the participation. You are very very funny.

Thank you for sharing, Adrian

[LuigiZ]

Hahaha oh yes @AdrianLunsong , going to be fun … but @AlejandraMaria and @Phunky (aka Antonio) have been so fun and nice, lovely guys.

[AlejandraMaria]

@AdrianLunsong , since the emojis stop working on connect @JanVanHaver and me started to use with the meaning of enthusiasm like the emoji of the woman dancing flamenco, kisses… Now a broccoli is the best!!! jajajaja

@LuigiZ I am looking foward to listening to you and the Italian Team . Will be great!

@AlexandreCampbell “Tocayo” (same name) you are veeery kind . So… your father´s name is Antonio… I have an uncle called Antonio. Many people in Spain has this name, especially in the male version.

A big big hug to all of you from the South of Spain,

Alejandra

[LuigiZ]

Hehe yes @AlejandraMaria , looking forward as well to the next episode … now the Italians and the French being part are spoiled before it gets published lol :-).

Thank you and a big hug!
