About

"“Soy una persona líder.” “I am a leader.” This quote perfectly encompasses Nekky. She is eloquently spoken, takes initiative, and has the drive to achieve her post-secondary education goals. She is currently student body president for her accounting class and is a naturally charismatic person. Before coming to Mosqoy, Nekky’s family suffered a terrible tragedy in a gas fire at her house. Her mother was severely burned and her father did not live through the injuries sustained from the accident. Her mother has been a beacon of positivity and encouragement for Nekky throughout her studies, always guiding her and reminding her of her incredible potential. Despite this tragic experience she perseveres in a positive way. She is always willing to help others, dedicated to her studies, and brings laughter to the program. She is a fighter.

Hi Nekky!
I'm writing to you from Portland, Oregon to wish you luck in your studies! You have so much courage and the potential to make a difference in today's world.

Happy studies!
Hola!!! ☺ Mi nombre es Nekky Helen Vargas Torres, tengo 18 años, y soy del distrito de Ollantaytambo. Estudio la carrera de contabilidad en el Instituto Khipu donde estoy cursando el 4° semestre. El área que más me gusto durante mi carrera es aplicativos informáticos que consiste en realizar diferentes programas de computación. En mi tiempo libre me encanta leer revistas, algunas libros que me interesan, y sobre todo me encanta bailar. Al terminar de estudiar esta carrera mi mayor anhelo es trabajar en una entidad financiera. Acerca de la Casa Mosqoy me gusta viajar a distintos lugares y conocer más de nuestra tierra querida y compartir momentos inolvidables junto a los chicos!!! GRACIAS! ☺

Hello!!! ☺ My name is Nekky Helen Vargas Torres, I am 18 years old, and I am from the district of Ollantaytambo. I study accounting at the Khipu Institute, where I am currently in my 4th semester. The area that I have enjoyed the most so far in my studies is information application, which consists of learning about different programming and computing software. In my free time I love reading magazines, digging into certain books, and above all, I love to dance. When I finish my studies my biggest goal is to work in a finance firm. What I like best about living at Casa Mosqoy is getting to travel to interesting places, getting to know more of my beloved country, and sharing unforgettable moments with my housemates!!! Thank you! ☺

    Notable experiences in my life are, first, passing my standard seven examination and, second, entering secondary school. My most difficult experience was when I started to learn English. I have learned that if you want to do something, you have to work hard. I felt proud was when I entered secondary school. My most memorable and happiest thoughts are from when I celebrated at my birthday party. My dream is to be an electrical engineer. I will get there through studying hard and doing well in science subjects. If I had the power to change my country, I would like to improve the electricity supply especially in rural areas because there are shortages of electric power.

    I have experience planting vegetables because my parents do that. Also, we have a garden at our home. Therefore, that is experience I have had in life. Apart from that experience, I also had a difficult experience when I failed my geography exam. That enabled me to learn how to cooperate with other students. I was so proud of myself when I performed well in my national exam. The memorable and happiest moment in my life will be when I reach my dream of being pilot. I will be so happy. My biggest dream is to be a pilot. I will get there through studying hard in physics, geography, and mathematics. After reaching my dream, I will help my parents to modify their cultivation system and to become professional farmers. From there they can expand the area of cultivation into a large plantation. Once I get a chance to have the power to change my country, I will build many airports in each region and some districts. This will help in the flexibility of transportation in my country.

    Experiences in my life are when I failed my examination during primary education and also when my parents failed to pay food for me. My difficult experiences in my life are when my parents have insufficient enough money to pay for all my basic needs at school such as food and other school contributions. The thing that makes me feel so proud of myself is when I succeeded in joining O-level education. This makes me feel that I will, I must, I can do everything. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life will be to reach my dream of being a doctor general so as I can help other people in society. My future dream is to be a GOOD surgical doctor. After me reaching my dream, I will give back help to my society and family, but also to WEF. I need to work hard upon reaching my dream in my life. Once I get chance to have power of changing anything in country, I will improve the education system by converting science subjects from theory to practical. In most of our schools, they teach science subjects mostly theoretically. I will start from there because as we know education is the key to every success in our people.
