2008: Mamen Vicente
I left my home city of Alicante for Ibiza in 1999. Whilst there my wanderlust kicked in and as I wanted to improve my English I decided to spend some time in the UK. A friend recommended Edinburgh, describing it as a beautiful city steeped in culture. I made the decision to travel to Scotland, but the travel bug remained and I have since travelled extensively through Europe and South America.
When I first came to Sheffield to visit my partner I was still living in Edinburgh. I was immediately drawn to the city and was well aware of its vibrant musical heritage as much of my youth was spent listening to its bands. My journey has come full circle, I arrived in Sheffield in 2008 and now consider it my home.
