ProZ.com powwow: Canary Islands study trip - part 1

¡Hola a tod@s!
Let's get together for this year's first powwow in Fuerteventura!
Event venue: Cantante bar, Calle Paseo Atlántico 2, Corralejo
I'm making a study trip (Canary Islands being part of it) related to the PhD research "A model strategy for success in the market of freelance translators: key determiners" that I'm currently working on at the University of Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona.
I believe you'll find the topic of my research intriguing and I'd like to invite you to come and share your experience.
The purpose of this powwow is to meet fellow translators from Fuerteventura, to build a network of colleagues, business associates and more, and last but not least - to have fun!
On a work side note, speaking of which your support would be greatly appreciated, I'm bringing a questionnaire related to my research and you will be invited to fill it out if you feel like doing it. No worries, it'll take you not more than 10-15 min. and then we'll be ready to start off the powwow.
I still haven't chosen the event venue, but it will be somewhere in the city centre. Feel free to make suggestions.
Thank you for the invitation, I would love to come! As I would travel across from Lanzarote, ideally I would prefer a day trip, as it's midweek. Would you consider a lunch or afternoon meeting?
Let me know Best regards Kim

Seriously though, I'd love to be there. However, I'm afraid it's the subject of a horrible coincidence: my brother died just this morning so I may have to be in the UK then . Don't you just hate coincidences? But if I'm on the island I can arrange to be wherever, whenever. Let me know if I can help at all in the organisation, but just be aware that at the moment I have no idea how things will pan out.

Oh, no, I will be on my holidays in Denmark. I would have gone from Gran Canaria, would have been no problem at all. Am back on 4th of June, if there is any chance of changing the date. Would have loved to see you, Kim ;o)

Hello Kim,
First of all, I am so sorry for my very late reply! Unfortunately, I did not receive any notifications about your messages. No problem, we can change the time! What about meeting at 5 p.m.?
Please let me know as soon as possible!
All the best and have a great day!
Kind regards, Milena
