She also explored Los Angeles, taking in the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame and that enclave of the rich and famous, Beverly Hills.

“Visiting the USA was a life-changing experience. It is such a mix of diverse cultures. People work hard to make a living, but despite their hectic work schedule they still make time to spend with their loved ones and to help each other.
