One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I asked to André what amazing thing he did, with a big smile he told me : "I can return my nose on itself!". Great. Useful. For my part , I traveled with my brother several months in Australia and we organized a surprise return for the anniversary of my mom who had not seen my brother for over a year. That was a beautiful and emotional moment for our family. I also trained and I raced a half marathon when I were not a sporty-girl . I created and lunch a company that I manage everything alone for 3 years. I created and launched a company that I manage alone since 3 years.
