This episode is one of our editions as we are still in the midst of Covid 19 pandemic. We’d like to extend our deep condolences to those who have lost their loved ones. This is definitely a very difficult time for everyone and we can only hope that soon we all heal as nature flourishes. Probably one day when we look back, we learn how valuable is the time that we have to hug our loved ones, to be kind to our fellow humans and to thank the sun for shining upon us.
