Hi everyone! My name is Irene, I am 19 years old and I was born and raised in Rome. I describe myself as positive, open minded and determined, I hardly ever give up when I set a goal for myself. I love traveling, meeting new people and getting in touch with other cultures. I am curious, enthusiastic and always ready to help others. I believe that listening to other people’s opinion and ideas is important because I can learn a lot from them. I am also interested in music, arts and sports. I have practiced synchronized swimming for many years, this sport has shaped my mindset and taught me the importance of teamwork. I can’t wait to start this new journey at Global Governance that will give me the chance to broaden my knowledge and achieve new skills in order to make a contribution to the world around me and to get a better understanding of the wider world. I am very excited to meet you all in September!
