Today we looked back at 2020. We reflected on how this year has been; what new things came into our life; what did we miss the most; and many more.
Thank you, Negar and Laura, for sharing your wonderful thoughts and experience. 🙏🤗 And sorry that it in some way was like interviewing you both. 😀But was worth it.
