Alexis Munier relocated to Europe in her mid-twenties and began teaching English at world-renowned language schools in Russia, Slovenia, and Italy. There, she learned the difficulties of infusing classic language study with the true native form. Now a writer and opera singer, Munier spends her free time in sunny Andalusia, Spain, where she is learning to salsa like a native and make authentic paella. She lives in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Laura Mart'nez has lived and worked as a journalist in Mexico City, Santiago de Chile, and Buenos Aires. She found her true second home in New York City, where she has survived a terrorist attack, massive blackout, neighborhood pipe explosion, and the transformation of Times Square into Disney World. Mart'nez lives la vida loca in Harlem with her franchute boyfriend.
