What should we talk about more in public?

I think talking about mental health is essential in a more and more isolating and stressful world where so many don’t realise that they are not alone in their struggles. Talking about it not only helps people feel less alone but it can also dissolve the taboo around the topic, making reaching out for help easier for everyone.

What have you learned outside of school?

I thought I was terrible at learning languages after taking a decade of classes in Chinese and barely being able to introduce myself. After leaving school I discovered that learning a language through friends and my environment is so much more effortless, effective and fun. I ended up learning fluent Dutch in 4 years and conversational Indonesian in 6 months. Now working on my Swedish, I would consider learning languages as a hobby of mine.
