That’s probably the most difficult question to answer. I’d say that I could appear different if I could be seen as a potential diplomat, both literally and metaphorically. Most people from my background who are interested in politics and IR usually have basically activities related to some kind of political engagement.
And I try not to be restricted to those. I also have a solid involviment with languages and a little bit with art. Those things are not only deeply connected to culture as a subject, but also to the idea of a certain sensitivity about dealing with the different.
So I try to give not only the impression that I have a political potential, but also that this potential is “unique” in the fact that I’m someone considerably sensitive to different realities, being able to serve as a good communicator and being someone who appreciates dealing with what’s different from me.
That’s how I wanted do develop myself, in order to become someone who deals with conflicts.
Definitely I’d have to write good essays about this.
I’m not saying that I consider myself a super special person or anything, I’m just pointing out a possible way of looking into my profile so I could be seen as different from other applicants interested in politics.
