My name is Talgat Subanaliev and I am a dreamer. I am like the "Alchemist" of Paulo Coelho, but from Toktogul in Kyrgyzstan, a region no less beautiful than Andalusia. In high school, I was a socially active student, president of the pupils at my school, trying to make a difference. When I was in 10th grade, I participated in a training camp in journalism organized by the International Research & Exchanges Board (IREX). That experience changed my life: I was going to be a journalist and study at AUCA.
