It would be like some sort of a pilgrimage for English Language and Literature teachers to visit Stratford-Upon-Avon when in the UK…
That, of course, was where William Shakespeare used to live. If time permits, one can even go and catch a play at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre there where his plays were staged during his time like this one, for instance…
“To be or not to be, that is the question…”
LOL!!! I guess I’m too fat to play “Hamlet” but there’s no harm fantasising about it, is there? LOL!!!
Well, halfway across the world is the birthplace of Katherine Mansfield – in Wellington, New Zealand…
…and I told my daughter that as an English teacher-to-be, she should drop by the house that has been turned into some kind of a museum for visitors to the city. After all, she studied one of her short stories, “The Doll’s House”, when she was doing her Foundation for her TESOL degree at the institute in Sungai Petani, Kedah.
Well, she went the other day with some friends of hers but unfortunately, photographs were not allowed inside so she just took a few outside while she was there…
…including this one in the pretty garden outside the house.
She’s certainly looking great, isn’t she?
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
