Mandy V

MY NAME IS MANDY, I AM FROM CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA. MY FAMILY IMMIGRATED HERE FROM THE NETHERLANDS IN THE 1950'S, A HERITAGE I AM EXTREMELY PROUD OF.

I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL FOR QUITE SOME TIME, FOR A DIFFERENT FIELD. PSYCHOLOGY AND CREATIVE WRITING HAVE ALWAYS PEAKED MY INTEREST, AND THERE ARE A FEW SCHOOLS IN EUROPE THAT HAVE OUTSTANDING PROGRAMS. A LOT OF THEM WILL ALLOW STUDENTS WHO RESIDE IN EUROPE, TO PAY A LOT LESS THAN INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS, OBVIOUSLY THIS WOULD HELP ME OUT A LOT AS I DON'T HAVE ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL. I WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE WITH A FAMILY IN THE COUNTRY I CHOOSE TO GO TO SCHOOL IN, AND LEARN ABOUT THEIR HISTORY, THEIR CULTURE AND THEIR WAY OF LIFE. BEING FROM A EUROPEAN FAMILY, I KNOW HOW DIFFERENT THEY LIVE, HOW MUCH THEY APPRECIATE THE THINGS THEY HAVE AROUND THEM AND HOW MUCH THEY WORK HARD FOR THE THINGS THEY WANT.

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED TRAVELING AND EXPERIENCING WHAT THE WORLD HAS TO OFFER. BEING ABLE TO EXPERIENCE ANOTHER COUNTRY WHILE I AM EDUCATING MYSELF IN THINGS I AM PASSIONATE AND CURIOUS ABOUT, IS SOMETHING I THINK ABOUT EVERY SINGLE DAY. I CRAVE IT MORE THAN I CAN EXPLAIN.
