Sarah like many of her generation faces tremendous peer pressure and thankfully like many questions why in the hope her talk helps others. Sarah is a 16 year old, 5th year student at school in Dublin. Focusing on her love of languages and music, she spent transition year in school in Austria where she not only had many important life experiences but also learned to speak German fluently. Life in a different country posed many challenges, however Sarah managed to look at the positive side of all situations. She balances her sporty side of hockey and tennis with her love of music, playing viola in the Dublin Youth Symphony Orchestra. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
