“It was really very quiet and peaceful, which gave a lot of time for reading and perhaps dreaming,” she tells
The National. “I guess I was just curious and asked many questions. I was fascinated by so many things around us.”
Most of the dreams were about a future career in science. She can’t explain why, but from an early age she was drawn towards “the medical side”. Not, she hastens to add, to become a doctor of medicine.
The city has been announced as the host for the One Young World Summit in May 2023.
More than 2,000 young people from over 190 countries are set to descend on Belfast for the four-day event, which aims to bring together world leaders of the future.
The young people will be joined by influential political, business and humanitarian leaders who take part as One Young World Counsellors.
Previous counsellors have included the Duchess of Sussex, Live Aid legend Sir Bob Geldof, Irish President Mary Robinson, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
While there has been no confirmation on who will attend the 2023 event, previous events have attracted a wide range of guests from different sectors, all famous within their own fields.
