United Nations Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs & Ivy League Student

I am currently finishing a Masters in Human Rights at Columbia University, NYC and looking back at my time at Beau soleil, I can see that it really helped me to become a much more open-minded person with a maturity greater than other people of my age. I learned to respect others trying to put myself in their shoes.

After living with your friends, having breakfast, lunch, and dinner for such a long time, you truly get to know a person. So, I guess that my time at Beau Soleil also taught me that not everyone is like the image they portray at a dinner party, there's a lot more behind closed doors!
