Yes, life is perfect at the moment. I had an interest in art ever since I was young.

I have two daughters. One runs a bridal business. The elder one. And the younger one works at the council. And the elder daughter has two sons.

I’m sixty years old. This is my 61st year running.

I must say that we’ve never – now or previously – never lived in a rented house. It was only during the first five years that we rented a place. Thereafter we’ve always purchased our own houses, and later sold them…

I like coming here (the Vandan group). I’ve been coming here since the time we had the shop.

I also used to do wedding related work; flower making, buttonhole, bouquet, and everything else. I’ve an interest in art as well. Whenever people needed some art stuff, I was the one they called. And my cooking is perfect. Everything is as it should be.

Yes, life is perfect at the moment. I had an interest in art ever since I was young.
