An update on my life experiences!
It's been a while.
I cannot believe I haven't written anything in
the last couple months! Many new things have happened in my life. I'd want to
discuss fresh changes and experiences with you all.
Since September, I've returned from London to
my hometown of Rotterdam in the Netherlands. Last summer, I graduated and was
unsure what to do next. When I was offered a traineeship at a Dutch television
channel, I couldn't help but say yes. Of
course, leaving London was difficult because I had almost spent four years
there, building a new life with friends and family. Compared to Rotterdam, where I know all of my
family and friends live, London is a wonderful city that has shaped me into the
person I am today.
I had a wonderful experience, especially when
I received my degree, which I am really proud of. After months of coming home,
I completed my traineeship. I understand that the sector in which I wish to
work (fashion and television) is difficult and competitive. But I'm still
fighting to combine life and work here in the Netherlands.
It has not been an easy path because I believe
that the media in the Netherlands is not very diverse, and I sometimes feel
that there is no place for someone like me in the journalism industry in the Netherlands.
