LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER

Dear Friends !

A

particularly challenging 2020 is coming to an end . This was a year when wearing masks , social distancing and teleworking became a commonly accepted reality . The words curfew and quarantine became part of our everyday vocabulary . Children conceived during the pandemic are called « coronials ». 2020 was definitely a write-off in our lives !

However , despite the pandemic , it is in human nature to keep making plans and looking for new opportunities in a seemingly hopeless situation . The HelloMonaco team has thus decided to use the quarantine as wisely as possible and introduce you to not just one , but two of our editions , now published separately in Russian and in English . We thus made the best of the situation to treat you to this incredible magazine !
This winter edition features Princess Stephanie and Grigor Dimitrov , giving you tips on how to stay in shape during the lockdown and exercising at home . We will continue our special section about the Grimaldi dynasty , Monaco national heraldry and much more . On behalf of the entire HelloMonaco editorial staff , we wish you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ! We are honestly hoping that 2021 will put an end to the coronavirus pandemic and bring life back to normal . As to us , we will keep dreaming , making plans and implementing new exciting projects !
Sincerely yours Olga Taran
