My name is Grace Gituto and am from Nairobi which is the capital city of Kenya. I was initially from the Central Province,where you can find the amazing Mt Kenya. I have been in Melbourne for one year studying community Welfare and am loving it. I will be finishing by the end of this year, pursue my Bachelors in Social Work and go on and become a social worker. I had an Advanced Diploma in I.T and worked as an I.T Instructor. When I first came, I faced challenges but am now settled.  I work part time as a Disability Support worker.
