2015 has been a great year for me. Work wise I have again
focused on sporting events with my roles at the Rugby World Cup and my return
to Race Of Champions, both of which I am very lucky and privileged to have
worked on and have led to some of the best moments of the year. I have also had the chance to go to many great music and theatre events, have a few fun holidays and meet some amazing people.
Looking forward to 2016 I hope to have more time to blog and
to attend/work on different types of events. I still want to focus on Sport but
am also keen to write about other events I am interested in including film,
theatre and music… plus there is the small matter of finding a new job in the
event world!
I hope to travel more, with a trip to NYC already booked for
February (ahh!!!), my Glastonbury tickets purchased (help me) and with a few
other exciting events also in the pipeline next year is already looking to be a
good one.
Another activity to add to the pile is learning Spanish,
which I have started to take more seriously in the last few weeks. As I have
mentioned before, a second language in the events industry can often be the
decider between candidates and opens up many more opportunities. At the moment
I am learning through online courses and the iPhone app DuoLingo
(www.duolingo.com) which I am finding very helpful and have heard great things
about. If anyone knows of any good online courses or apps etc for learning a
second language please let me know. This also means I should definitely plan a
trip to Spain next year to practice, right!?
There are plenty of other goals I have for 2016 which I
won’t bore you with but for now I am going to enjoy the holidays and get
excited about Christmas! Let me know what your goals are for 2016, I would love
to hear them!
