Hi! My name is Melisa, but everyone calls me Meli. I’m 18 years old, born and raised in Istanbul. I speak Turkish, English, and Italian, and I've recently started learning Spanish. I’ve always been passionate about learning new languages, and since I felt a strong connection to Italy when I was little, learning Italian came naturally to me, which eventually led me to prepare for studying in Italy. I love acting and figure skating, but my biggest passion is dancing. I’ve been doing contemporary dance for years. I’m deeply interested in law and international affairs. I chose this program because I really want to dive deeper into global dynamics alongside people who see the world from entirely different angles. I can’t wait to jump into this journey and meet people all over the world!
