ABOUT ME

I am 18 years old, a third culture kid, having lived in 3 different continents for my whole life. Having calculated, I have spent more than half of my life in the Middle East. I like to read world literature and analyze it. I particularly enjoy reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Ehmm what else! I really love diving, it magically transfers me into a world unknown and all fear vanishes when I am 20 meters under, quite ironically! I like drawing, painting, going for walks in the parks. I am an animal lover and thus, I am going to be studying veterinary sciences next year. I am multilingual!

Interests

I like scuba diving, horseback riding, writing, reading novels and poetry, watching comedies on T.V.. I also enjoy walks in the parks, and making jewelery.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have done was going to the Philippines to work with sexually harassed children. I met a very nice, intelligent boy called Benji. Although I only got to know him for seven days, I can honestly say that he was my role model. He had gone through so much, but was always in high spirits, like most children there. He changed my life as he made me discover some things about myself and he made me appreciate every single day of my life.

An amazing thing i have done (or at least i think it to be) was diving 20 meters under to gaze at a shipwreck called Inchpoint 21. It was beautiful to see how life develops on everything.
