My name is Ilia Calogero Curto Pelle, a weird mixture of Bulgarian, Italian, and Russian components, born and raised in Sofia with Sicilian and Uralic roots. Currently, I am a junior within the Classics Department of Princeton University, but my journey started at the National Music School of Sofia and passed through the National High School of Ancient Language and Culture “St. Constantine-Cyril the Philosopher." This Sunday, I will be sharing my experience in the study of the Humanities, Foreign Languages, and Ancient History with you at Fulbright's and EducationUSA's Virtual U.S. College Alumni Fair. I look forward to seeing all of you there!
