It was interesting for the children to learn about how the future social entrepreneur’s childhood passed, with whom the guest was friends, whom he was in love with, what he was inspired by when he decided to devote his life to his main occupation, what qualities in a person he considers the main ones, what he enjoys, what he reads and much other.

It all depends only on you who you will become, ”said the guest of the program.
