I am a Worldschooler

I know I've probably mentioned this a lot already, depending on where you've heard of me, so I thought I should give you a better idea of what a worldschooler is, and show you my story!

My Story

Ever since I was 4 years old, instead of going to school, I travelled the world to learn from people, cultures, nature, and, once I learned to read, books. As expected from learning in this manner, I've been to many countries: Hong Kong, Malaysia, Switzerland, Taiwan, England, Scotland, France, Indonesia, Italy, and majority of Eastern Europe.

​

During my travels, I met tons of interesting people, all of whom taught me something new- directly at times, but mostly indirectly. I also participated in climate movements, explored everything within reach of the area I was staying, and logged all my experiences in my diary.

​

My experiences were the main basis for my book, 'What Can an 8 Year Old Tell You?’ as well as contributing greatly to the foundation of both my academic and my extracurricular knowledge.
