One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think one of the most exciting moments in my life was when I realised I could speak another language and people understood what I was saying. It's marvellous to be able to share your thoughts in another language and also hear a polar point of view from a person who lives overseas...
What else? Perhaps, the moment I started dancing tango at a party... magic feeling, I still remember it!
