Used to get fed well 40 years ago in January 1983 when I stayed in the main house 🏠 when I went on my residential training at the camelia Botnar foundation and I loved the whole residential training experience
That looks delicious 😋
I want to come live there 🤣 my son is getting fed well.
Also in March and April 40 years ago in 1983
Fantastic
