Karsta Semedo

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Karsta Semedo, I am a 28 year old Mozambican woman living in Maputo Cidade.

I’ve graduated in Social Sciences at the university of Mysore in Karnataka, India in 2013 and I’ve completed high school in Cape town, South Africa.

The fact that I’ve lived and studied in different countries from that where I am from, has contributed to my appreciating of multicultural environments, as I like learning from cultural diversity.

I
