During my trip to London in November 2024, I enjoyed the early release of films including "Gladiator II" and notably, "Paddington in Peru." This experience brought me unexpected joy, especially as I met with Karen Jankel, daughter of Paddington's creator, Michael Bond. Our conversation revealed Paddington's lasting impact on her family and the excitement of her visits to Peru for filming. As a former teacher with a deep connection to the Amazon, discussing this film added meaningful touch to my journey.
The anticipation and surprise of early film releases in London added to the joy of my trip, allowing me to connect with Paddington's legacy through Karen Jankel.
Karen Jankel shared her experiences visiting the Paddington film sets in Peru, where she felt an emotional connection to the place despite it being her first visit.
