We liked very much both the documentary viewing and the time you spent answering the attendees' questions about your adventures, experiences and sensations. Òmnium Alt Penedès thanks you for your interest and collaboration in doing this activity at our headquarters. We hope your documentary wins many prizes and finds a big audience in our country, Catalonia, and around the world.

The two hours flew by, and if it hadn't been for the fact that it was dinner time and people had commitments, we would have surely extended the conversation in a relaxed way. The attendees left with a good feeling and happy to have been able to attend. Hearing about your experience first-hand, is a privilege and, based on the audience's curiosity, the event was a great success. Many congratulations for everything: the trip, the documentary and sharing it with everyone who wants to [learn about it].
