"I met Lela in a self-development study group in 2006. Since then, I have talked to her almost every week. From the very first call, her voice was clear and calm. I recognized “something” in her personality. Soon I identified the core, the fountainhead of this “something.”

Even as a boy, I admired the Norwegian pioneers, many thousands of them, moving the promise of America, launching a new life without any warranty of success, and conquering the environment and external obstacles. They originated the land of the self-made man.

Once upon a time, in a place far from Norway, another people lived a harsh life. At this place, the Bekka Valley, there lived a special, strong-willed girl. Like the Norwegian pioneers, she did not believe in poverty and illiteracy. She willingly put herself in danger, taking risks in search of opportunities in a strange land.
