My name is Adhikari Elina. My date of birth is 2002/12/29. I had completed my +2
higher education from Sanjiwani College.
I have wanted to be a nurse since I was a child because I believe that caring for
people brings me happiness. After graduating from high school, I aspired to pursue
a nursing career. However, I decided to explore other opportunities and began
teaching English to elementary school students at Famous English Boarding School.
I have been working here for the past three years.
I heard about Hachiko Japanese Language School in October last year and started
studying Japanese. I have now completed my N4 level studies and am scheduled to
take the N4 exam on the 18th of next month. I learned about the nursing care study
abroad scholarship from a teacher at Hachiko, which I believe is a wonderful
opportunity for me. Nursing and caregiving are areas that I am interested in, so I will
go to Japan to study nursing care extensively and work in Japan for around 10 years.
When I am around 36 years old, I would like to return to Nepal and set up a nursing
home that can care for many elderly people. I hope to be able to enroll successfully
so that I can achieve my goal.
