I'm interested in and passionate about a wide variety of tastes such as literature, 18th century history, Russian politics and history, politics, international law... Unquestionably I
have completely eclectic tastes so I can fit in and adapt pretty much
anywhere. I've grown up in a military family and have lived overseas for
more than half my life, including England and Turkey, Germany. I've come to deeply appreciate other cultures through my extensive traveling, which is as much a hobby as it is a learning experience. My dream is to pursue a field in International Law, either working for NATO or the International Court of Justice.
