I&#39;m majoring in International Communication and double minoring in International Studies and Sociology. I was born in Istanbul, Turkey but grew up in New Jersey. Yes, I am bilingual. No, I do not have an accent (I wish). I&#39;m going to be tackling Sydney, Australia head on and I couldn&#39;t be more excited! Beautiful beaches, kangaroos, and accents, Australia is my dream come true.</span></p>
