I’m the new editor of Vapouround and I’m incredibly excited for the first issue edited by yours truly. For the last six months, I’ve been assistant editor to the wonderful, the brilliant, the one and only Paul Caplin, and what a mentor he has been and will continue to be. Don’t worry, Paul’s not going anywhere. He is now focusing his time more on leading the company in his role as managing director. As I’m writing this, we’re in the lead up to the Vaper Expo UK: The Return. Once again, we’re exclusive media partners to Europe’s biggest vape event and we’ll be producing the showguide again. Mark your floorplan for The Vapouround Bus while you’re there, and don’t miss The Vapouround Club stand at booth D230!
