00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:51.439

00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.000
<v Speaker 3>With a deep sigh and affirmed decision, Ferranz decided that

123
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.200
<v Speaker 3>perhaps it was time to follow Gemma's advice.

134
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:36.879
<v Speaker 3>toasted with Gemma under the starry sky, he understood that

135
00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 3>the greatest adventure was found outside his comfort zone.
