Comments on: there’s a lot to love http://www.pondjumpersspain.com/2009/11/04/theres-a-lot-to-love/ Jay and Kelly Larbes’s blog about living in Madrid, Spain (and formerly, Split, Croatia) to see more of the world while they are young and childless. Tue, 17 Jun 2014 19:08:05 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.1.4 By: Kelly Larbes http://www.pondjumpersspain.com/2009/11/04/theres-a-lot-to-love/comment-page-1/#comment-1781 Wed, 30 Jun 2010 14:59:55 +0000 http://www.pondjumperscroatia.com/?p=368#comment-1781 Hi Nina – There are two salsa clubs in Split that have dance party nights – usually Thursdays and Saturdays. They have been changing up the venues lately because bars aren’t committed to one thing in July and August here. The best way to find out is via their facebook pages:
Salsa Tropicana: http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000412021340&ref=ts
Miljen: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=126816270676868#!/miljen
You may need to use google translate. The clubs usually put dance party info on their facebook page and send an invite out to anyone who friends them. Good luck and have fun!

Hope you can give me some insider information! I will be in Duce last two weeks in July. Have been doing salsa for a couple of years and would like to check out a salsa venue for a party night in Split. Do you know details of anywhere i can go?

Best Wishes
Nina

And the ‘cheese pita’ thing you get to eat is actually called Burek which is pastry with a meat or cheese filling; a traditonally Turksh dish.

I hope you don’t mind me reaching out to you. I’m a casting assistant in New York for a popular show about people relocating outside North America. It’s called House Hunters International and airs on the Home & Garden cable network (HGTV). We are casting people for this show right now and I was wondering if you or anyone you know would be interested in participating.

Our show consists of a family or couple who has relocated in the past few years and the property they live in. The purpose of the show is to demystify the process of moving and living abroad. You can learn more about our show and watch episodes here: http://www.hgtv.com/house-hunters-international/show/index.html.

Putting together an episode with you would be a real treat for our audience and it’s a lot of fun for you too. Contributors to the show get a nice keepsake shot in HD video and also receive compensation for your time and efforts.

If you or anyone you know is interested in learning more, please contact me at househunterscasting@leopardfilms.com. Thank you in advance for your prompt feedback on this. Have a wonderful day!

And Dad Klocke… thanks for the kind note, but with the running thing… Id like to take credit for ‘getting Kelly running again’, but actually I think she got me ‘running again’… Id been going for some ‘leisurely jogs’ thru Marjan, but I let them slide, then one day Kelly joined me, saying ‘only a short one, cant run more than 20minutes’… then turns out she is a “Closet Quarter-Marathon Runner”! 🙂 … its been great motivation for me, I never thought I could run 10km… and now they have me going salsa dancing too! 🙂 Have a great time in Egypt all of you.

Pat – laugh all you want. I understand. It is funny.

Betty – Yes, it is a miracle that we like the food here.

Paula – I need to remember to ask you what this says, because Google translator didn’t do too well with it. But I can tell it is nice, so thank you.

Dad – Hopefully I can outlast you running someday, but I think you will still be faster than me for years to come. Your comments always make me smile so big. I can’t wait to see you in Egypt.

I wish that i could write as good as you do. You are meeting so many interesting people that you will member forever. Paula seems like a great friend. Also Paula got you to run and that is something that I could never get you to do. I remember trying to get you to run around the fortball field at West. When you get home, you will be able to outrun me. That will be difficult for me to accept!!!!!!!!! Just think when you get old you will be able to tell your kids about your experience living in Crotia before you decide to settle down.. They will probably tell you that they already heard that story many times, just like you tell me when I repeat myself. I am looking forward to see you and Jay in a few days to experience a life long dream of visting Egypt. You should have plenty to write about when you get back to Split. ( I am looking forward to going back to Split again – maybe in May, 2010 or sooner).
