Christina lives in Mongolia, where she is internet schooled. She talks about what it's like to experience so many different cultures all the time.
Since you’ve become a teenager, what are the most important things in your life? What are the things that stress you?
What's important to me? My dad, cause he's really the only family I got, then friends, and animals…Things that stress me are my academic progress, the future…I don’t know how to word the people part. Social pressure?
How do you envision your future?
I have lots of dreams for the future, that’s what keeps me going. One of my dreams is to become a vet, I guess that's my long term goal. I think about my future fairly often, about just as much as the present. I'm nearly an adult so I guess thinking ahead is a part of the growing process.
How do you think living abroad is different from living in Europe or America, for example?
I would say the positive part of it is that you get to learn different ways of life and experience cultures that differ from your own. In a way it makes you more open minded because of the unique experiences you get from living abroad.
