    1.16 +First of all I want to express my utter gratitude towards my parents. They were there for me, constantly encouraging and supporting me generously in so many ways. Then there are my sisters Clara, Vroni and Anita, whose wonderful personalities make me a happier person. I want to thank my relatives and friends for being such an important part of my life and of who I am. Also, my colleagues are funny and inspiring people without exception and they have made my time as a student a pleasure.
