Career Break
South America
2023.08 - 2024.02
After studying hard at University and enduring the burden of COVID-19, I joined the world of work so quickly after graduation, without giving myself the time to assess what the right career path was for me. I set myself the goal of saving up and going travelling through Central and South America to give myself the time to reflect on what I wanted out of life and my career.
I managed to travel through Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Brazil and Argentina and fully immerse myself in other cultures and ways of life. This has meant I am excited to get back into work, into something I would love to do, such as Media and Creative Agencies.
