“If I look back seven months, I remember the nerves of the unknown, the insecurities regarding my level of English and at the same time the desire to discover a new country for which I did not know much at the time nor was it a destination I would have had in mind before. Now, seven months later, I couldn't be happier for the choice I made at the time, both for the country I chose and for the association and the project they have been carrying out since 2012 when they were formed”.
