Answer 1

So far it was working fine but I restarted the shell

The reason is because you restarted the shell.

If you want this to work with each shell, you'll need to add these to your ~/.bashrc file:

export WORKON_HOME=~/.virtualenvs
VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON='/usr/bin/python3'
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

After adding this, you'll want to source ~/.bashrc so the changes take effect. You'll find that you have access to virtualenvwrapper facilities in each new shell.
