My name is Kayra Nur Kaya. I’m 20 years old and in the second year of studying for a degree in politics, international relations and philosophy at Royal Holloway, University of London. I was born in Turkey but chose to study here. Alongside my university classes, I work as a barista and participate in the Christian Union, philosophy society, politics society and the international society. I have a special heart for international students.
