THE TALENT OF YUKO

 

Yuko was guest speaker at Rotary Club Geneva International, at the Hotel Intercontinental last week, 24 April.

Club members were fascinated by her story of bringing the Harry Potter series to Japan, 25 years ago, and her vision of creating Magic Libraries Foundation in 2016, to provide books for children in disadvantaged countries and regions and training for young translators .

They presented Yuko with a bottle of their special Pinot Noir Gamay blend from the Geneva countryside.

Thus showing the universality of sharing wine in a spirit of conviviality.

It was in this spirit that Yuko agreed to invest in Mike Press Wines, a family company in the Adelaide hills back in 2017.

The talent of Yuko – and with that talent –  her grace and generosity!
