Hey guys. 
I am a political science undergraduate with a interest in International Relations. I have been learning German and have gained sufficient proficiency. I also have locomotor disability.
It's been like 2 years since I graduated. However I achieved much in my field of interest.

I come from a small town where people aren't familiar with International Relations. 
My family wants me to get a local government job (which would be an easier choice with good returns),  but I don't want that.

Meanwhile Venezuela no US aircraft were lost, with multiple helicopters flying around the capital and close to sensitive sites - the Presidential palace

\- Timing: soldiers not at post at 1am, despite the US armada off the coast.
