Thu Nguyen
marketing in Gothenburg, Sweden
I’m a young woman who is always full of energy, new ideas and a passion for learning new things, and does not give up easily.
The past year has been the best time of my life. I have done many things for the first time. The first time I left my country by taking out 7000 EUR loan, which is more than twice my annual salary. The first time I ran my own pop-up restaurant, learning how important collaboration is in entrepreneurship and what the differences between “partner” and “helper” are. The first time I cooked food that others would eat. The first time I earned money by selling my ideas. The first time I joined a startup and was in charge of a role that I had never done before: researching new market "Japan" for the totally new product "Woodprints". The first time I won a scholarship to study in Japan and then the first time I went to Japan.
Now is the first time I dare to dream about an internship at global tech startups. I have never felt so excited and ready to explore the new journey ahead like now, in this moment. No matter how big the company is, no matter what I will do, as long as I work with great people for a great purpose, it will make my journey worthwhile.
