This allows me to stay closely involved with each guest, and to protect the quality of attention that makes this work possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Bouton pour afficher le formulaire -->\n<button onclick=\"toggleForm()\" class=\"custom-button\">Let's connect<\/button>\n\n<!-- Conteneur du formulaire -->\n<div id=\"contact-form-container\" class=\"fade-form hidden\">\n  <form id=\"contactForm\" class=\"contact-form\" action=\"\">\n    <label>Your name<br>\n      <input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required>\n    <\/label>\n    <label>Email<br>\n      <input type=\"email\" name=\"_replyto\" required>\n    <\/label>\n    <label>What would you like to share?<br>\n      <textarea name=\"message\" rows=\"5\" required><\/textarea>\n    <\/label>\n    <button type=\"submit\" class=\"custom-button\">Send your message<\/button>\n  <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"trp-form-language\" value=\"en\"\/><\/form>\n  <div id=\"confirmationMessage\" class=\"confirmation hidden\">\n    Merci pour votre message.
