Four years ago I did an apprenticeship as a media clerk in a small publishing house. Before the apprenticeship I completed my secondary school.
For the past ten years, I took care of children of all ages from different families. I became very close to them and I cherish the time I have spent with them. When my brother was younger, I also took care of him, when our mum was wo
