Liebe Natalie! Danke fürs adden! Ich freue mich über das virtuelle Wiedersehen (-hören). Ich erinnere mich noch gut, als Du mir im ersten Semester in Zürich auf meine Frage nach Deinen Idolen geantwortet hast, dass Du deine eigene Stimme finden möchtest. Und wie ich jetzt nach über 15 Jahren höre, hast Du das tatsächlich geschafft! Ich gratuliere und grüsse herzlich von Allschwil nach Boston, David
