Since childhood, I have dreamed of studying abroad, however, at that time access to exchange was for few people. As the years went by, I focused on my career in public administration and believed that at some point the opportunity to fulfil this dream would arise. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year, I was afraid that this wish would not come true. Then in 2022, after following some colleagues who got their master's places abroad, I decided to transform the dream into a goal. The RFB, the organization in which I work, has been giving its employees the opportunity to pursue specializations in their areas of interest, including programs abroad, encouraging its employees to apply for the Chevening scholarship. I believe that choice is because of its renowned universities with world-class academic resources which have produced some of the best minds in the world today.
