Something unique?

A diverse background and upbringing. Born in Switzerland to Somali Diplomats who, throughout diplomacy, relocated to and from various different places globally. Initially spent a modest part of my childhood years in New York. The latter part of my childhood, along with a good part of my formative years, were also spent living and schooling abroad, particularly in Ethiopia (and briefly in Kenya and the UAE). We would then return and immigrate back to the US; this time settling in Northern Virginia where I would finish up and graduate High School. I was a pretty well-traveled kid for the most part – having been to and lived in four continents altogether!
