Training Course

“Set your Story free”...
“Once upon a time a group of valiant people coming from various lands very very far away met on the green hill of Buda, in the land of the Magyars.

Sharing meaningful stories can enable this enriching connection, where people can really share who they are not taking into account where they come from, age, gender or financial, educational circumstances.
