I was born and raised in Bratislava, Slovakia. A small city to most but large for the 5 million people living in this small yet beautiful country. I was lucky enough to have great parents who supported me in most of my endeavours in either sports or school. Although we have had a few rough patches I'm grateful for what I have. Living in such a small city has its advantages, for example everyone knew everyone, people were friendly, and there was no rush or issues getting from one side of the city to another. This played a huge part especially when it came to my school and sports. Being able to pendulate between school and sports was challenging but made much easier because of the city size. From my earlier childhood all the way to graduation i studied only at one school, QSI Bratislava. An international school in which I met people from all over the world. As someone who lived in one country and never travelled it was very hard for me to keep stable friendships with my classmates since all of them travelled with there parents every 2-5 years. It was and still is a very hard way of life to get used to especially when i was younger. Seeing all my best friends and teachers suddenly vanish from my life being only able to communicate through technology was a tough life to get used to. On the other hand this life gave me an opportunity to meet new people and create new friendships which i will cherish till the end of my life.
