Professionally, my Chevening experience showed me that I could aim higher, and reach far beyond my original plans.
Chevening caught my attention for being a very solid, objective, welcoming, and well-structured programme, which aimed at cultivating an inter-cultural relationship beyond education.
I fell in love with the University of Warwick’s International Economic Law programme for its engaging syllabus and for its contemporary, forward-thinking, and edgy features.
During my time in the UK, I learned that it is very important to hold on to one’s values, but at the same time to be prepared and flexible for oncoming changes, in technology and society. I was also reminded that the world is a beautiful and colourful place, full of inspiring people and brilliant minds; I was thankful to be a part of it.
On a personal level, I felt that my opinions and mindset were hugely expanded. Professionally, my Chevening experience showed me that I could aim higher, and reach far beyond my original plans, explore new areas, and get out of my comfort zone.
Please enjoy your time in the UK and take advantage of each minute, and every aspect, of the programme. Remember that the Chevening experience is a life-changing gift.
