Amelie from Paris in France.

I work in a chocolate factory. It`s a good job, but very difficult. I have to work long hours. So
I`m going to leave this job, because it`s an opportunity to start something again. I got
married very young and had a family, so I didn`t finish my education. Later I got divorced. But
I`ve just finished evening classes in business studies, and now I`m going to start my own
business. It`s something I already do as a hobby. I make delicious cakes. Just a moment, I`ll
get you some… Here you are, taste this. Do you like it? Well, I`m meeting the bank manager
on Wednesday to discuss my business plan. And hey, maybe I`ll take a piece of cake for him
to taste as well.
