First working abroad at the age of 21.

From that day, having just finished a master's degree, I didn't think that this trip would be the beginning of working around the world. I want to say, don't be afraid to dream. Today's small steps may be the way to our dreams in the days to come. It's encouraging. 🫶🏻
