Bondia! My name is Amanda, I’m 19 years old, and I’m from a sunny little island called Aruba. It’s nearly impossible to pinpoint some defining traits about me; my interests are all over the place! From singing to poetry to debate: I’d be happy to exercise my skills.

I love to travel and explore the world around me. I’ve been to 3 continents, met countless people, and have made memories that will last a lifetime. I’m always out of the house doing an activity, or planning my next trip abroad!

Having been diagnosed with autism and ADHD, I always knew what my limitations were. Did I let them stop me? Never. Doctors told me I wouldn’t ever learn how to write or properly speak; now I’m here writing my story to you.

I hope to be a voice for those who don’t have one, and for those who might need a helping hand in doing so.

Amanda Britten
