My Travel Story

by: Elme Strydom Start Date: Jun 8, 2020 - End Date: Dec 7, 2020
I am a graphic designer in South Africa with a passion for art. I received an opportunity to study when I was accepted into university at 26. I'm majoring in Art History and Literature Theory with minors in English and Psychology with merit marks. I am personally funding my university career, which leaves me with little wiggle room. Being the first person in my immediate community to receive higher education, I want to take full advantage of my opportunities and bring as many back as possible. I would love to take advantage of an opportunity that was presented to me and visit the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam to enhance my study track.
My end goal is to start a foundation to assist underprivileged South African youths to have the same opportunity to study as I have.
