"More and more I think we should not take ourselves too seriously. Life and my kids have taught me how to make fun of myself. There is nothing like a good family dinner or good Friends. And a good wine, by the way. I love reading, watching movies, a good football match. That song. And nowadays I cannot resist a series, that I watch on the computer. I like the nighttime rides with my dog Guga, the only one who seems to tolerate my temperamental reactions."
