My name is Otgon-erdene.


 I'm 20 years old.


I am majoring as English Translator at the International University of Ulaanbaatar.


This is my junior year at university.


I live with my parents and sister.


But in the last 3 years, I have been living in a dormitory.


Because my hometown is 1500km far away from the capital city.


My disability type is Physical.


From the time I was born, I'm always using a wheelchair in my daily life.  


GITC is the most memorable part of my whole life.


In 2017, that was the first time I participated in GITC, which was held in Vietnam.


The following year, I participated competition held in India for the second time and won the prize.


I was so happy and can't believe it when the host called my name and my country's name. 


There are so many positive changes in my life brought about by the GITC.


For example, I made so many friends those days and learned a lot of things from each other.


I still keep in contact with my friends on social.


And GITC has given me great motivation to continue learning.


Thanks to all of the people who held GITC!
