I’ll be attempting to keep a weekly journal of my activities in the Foundation to keep track of my progress and leave a roadmap for the interns who come after me. — Happy New Year! That might not be the right thing to say in these challenging times. Over the winter holidays, I was lucky to escape up to the snowy mountains to spend some time with my family and close friends. The end of a gruelling year, the start of a…
