I plan to get a Ph.D degree in Economics at a later point in my life. I will never stop learning. I am also planning on learning 2 or 3 more languages (in addition to French, my next ones will be Spanish, Italian and German).
I think I adapt well to any environment. I also believe that I can feel, “read” and understand people around me quite well.
