About myself
I have lived in about 6 countries throughout my life, and experienced many different cultures. I believe that with this experience I was able to grow as a person to make new connections and learn new things. For example, there were many language barriers where I lived which allowed me to be open minded towards the people and culture as well as learn the language quickly to a decent extent.
The main skill I picked up was being a people person, due to the different changes in my life and my extroverted personality, this has allowed me to maintain good, friendly, social skills followed by a passion to help and work hard for my goals.
