La semaine dernière, j'ai eu l'étrange et agréable opportunité de revivre mes années d'études de l'autre côté de la barrière. Neuf ans après l'obtention de mon Master à l'Université de Nottingham, je me suis retrouvée dans l'amphithéâtre où j'ai suivi tant de cours, sauf que cette fois-ci c'était moi sur l'estrade.
