Student and Consultant in Rotterdam, Netherlands
Hello, I’m Khaled. I’m a student living in Rotterdam, Netherlands. I am a fan of music, entrepreneurship, and innovation. I’m also interested in travel and fitness.
Something about me:
Most of us go through different phases in lifethat leads to new experiences such as living, or studying abroad. My storybegins when I was seventeen; I graduated from high school, and wanted to livemy life in Portland, Oregon. I started my first courses in at a college calledPortland community college. I barley spoke English; I had no clue how things goin a first world country since I came from the Middle East. Living abroadtaught me to live free and to discover myself away from all the traditions, family’sperspectives, and different reality. Sometimes I felt homesick and lonelybecause I didn’t trust people. Then I had to discover out and it was all in myhead. I decided to move out from collegeto university then I ended up at Southern Oregon University. I did businessadministration studies that taught me a lot of techniques, and gained a lot of credithours. Out of the blue, I decided to move out of America and to complete IBL at Hogeschools. I found a new experience and went for it because that’s onetime chance in life. Being alone without any body made me stronger, because Iknow so well that I got the ambitious to accomplish the goals in my mind. Keepmoving forward, don’t stop, don’t settle because life is more interesting when it gets challenging.
