Hello Monaco #15 Summer–Autumn 2022 | Page 4

LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER

I

am often asked why I decided to make Hello Monaco magazine ? The answer is simple . Because this work inspires me , gives me food for thought , makes me constantly look for something new to surprise myself and the reader .
I am sure that you will be impressed by our historical research about Monaco in this summer issue . You will find out how Princess Charlotte unexpectedly saved the Grimaldi family , about the fact that the Lord of Monaco Lucien may have been the prototype of Machiavelli ’ s “ The Prince ”, that our ruler has many more than a dozen titles that connect him with powerful aristocratic families throughout Europe .
Olga Taran , Founder , Editor-in-Chief of HelloMonaco

Marieux van den Broek , Bakian and Domingo Zapata , the heroes of the WOW section , are distinguished by an avant-garde creative attitude to life . Each of our heroes is interesting and inspires respect in his own way . I want as many readers as possible to get acquainted with the stories of our heroes , and perhaps they will inspire you too , give impetus to changes and kindle non-obvious decisions . After all , that is why we are always looking for extraordinary heroes for this section . For catalysts to embolden change , what more could a publisher dream of ?
Finally , I congratulate all of us with the blessing of a long-awaited summer ! An exceptional summer , free from wearing masks , free from the “ aroma ” of the sanitizer that has been haunting us for the past two years , summer where one is allowed to travel , gather with oodles of boisterous companions , dance and even sing !
And believe me , this is just the beginning ! And we are waiting for a really full season of bright events and eventful times . If you have not yet fully planned your cultural pastimes , then the Top Events section will help you .
Sincerely yours , Olga Taran
