Hello Steemers. I would like to share with you my story from 2 years ago. Me and my partner had a restaurant then called "I Cannoli". In September visited us lovely couple from France who fall in love with our Mediterranean food and come to dine every single day till the last day of them holiday in #Malta. We become a friend with Eveline & Jean-Louis very quickly. Happy and open- minded people were so sad hearing that the restaurant will be close very soon because they visit Malta every often. They have asked us if we would like to come to France to visit them back in hometown, Ventron and meet them daughter. We loved the idea so then in January we decided to stay a few days on the north of #France where we met a fantastic and energetic Elise Pellergrin. We spend unforgettable moments together with Elise's story that I would love to tell you now about it. Pellegrine's Great grandfather was born in Malta and move to France for work. It was this a connection that pushed her to seek Maltese citizenship. In doing so she was the perfect candidate to compete for Malta at FIS Alpine Ski World Championship in 2013 and Olympics in 2014 and this Olympics 2018 coming. We found about that she is a professional Alpine skier and we can see her in action by watching tv.
In Pyeongchang, Pellegrin will be competing in the Women’s Giant Slalom and the Women’s Slalom. Competitions will take place at the Yongpyong Alpine Centre on the 12th and 14th February.
That is a few word that Elise said on interview: "I am very proud and honored to represent Malta for the second time in the Winter Olympic Games. I have been working hard towards this goal for months, where my focus was completely towards these Games and training was a mix of physical, technical and mental training.” commented Elise Pellegrin “My Maltese grandmother instilled in me a love for Malta, and I will do my best to make Malta, and those who put their faith in me, proud”
Myself I looking forward to Olympics and hope you also. Xxx
