I have to rationalize my assets and that is why I am selling Paros. I do not want to leave debts behind me,” said the man who, despite everything, “does not regret anything.”

I am obliged to work, and probably for a long time to come, to repay my debts,” explained the man who is now “settled permanently in Perche.” Choices that he takes responsibility for.
