Tjaša Dražnik

I come from Murska Sobota, but after living in France for a couple of years, I am now in search of a new home. As a child, I had many dreams, from becoming a journalist, an actress, a teacher, to a diplomat. I've kept my interest for these professions which are reflected today in different parts of my life, from professional to amateur. Globetrotter is one of them.

I've realized part of my childhood ambitions – today I am a teacher of English and French. Languages have always been a great passion of mine, taking me abroad many times, where I met various inspiring life stories. Here is where my motivation for teaching comes in. Not only does it enable me to share my knowledge and skills, it also allows me to enjoy the potentials of human diversity and creativity. For me, teaching is challenging but also very rewarding. Nevertheless, it is by far not my only source of satisfaction, which is why I remain flexible in my future projects.

I believe we cannot and should not plan the future too far ahead, since life is full of surprises and new opportunities. Travelling and meaningful immersive experiences abroad are here to test our limits and keep us alert, which is why I am excited to embark on new adventures.
