That is so good to hear, that you could develop your talent and passion! For sure, we don't forget our "teachers" and later, we become kind of friends. That happened to me too, and is still happening, having my students that become colleagues, so friends too :))
Sorry, for the late response, just missed a whole day of comments to respond to. See you around π
Absolutely the passion is everything, all my friends still do it until this day that's what's so beautiful about it and I really appreciate the support ππππ€ keep doing the good work!
