Im glad you made this video! Even though I knew of diplomats, for some reason it never occurred to me to look into it as a career.. like one of those far off jobs that only the high an mighty get chosen for .
Thanks for the inspo!
If I can do it, anyone can. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Love this video! I am 30 years old and finally want to chase my childhood dream of becoming a diplomat.
Thank you so much!!! You can definitely do it 😀 I am cheering you on!!!
I couldn’t hold my tears because your story was a dream come true. You had a few stumbles in your way journey but you demonstrated determination, persistence and working-hard and now it has paid off. I’m a believer of the lord too so I believe he was part of the plan. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. ❤️🙏🏼
Aww, thank you for sharing this with me. He is definitely part of the plan. The story is still being written :-). Thank you for watching and I hope you stay tuned!
Welcome to Brazil! May the Lord bless you in my land!
Thank you!
As a first-year international relations student, you have become an inspiration to me as a person who doesn't have any background or connections to foreign affairs. I hope to achieve such dream as well. I have become a fellow subscriber.
Welcome!!! Thank you so much for commenting! I am cheering you on. Are there any types of videos you would like to see?
I'm an International Relations student and it's just my freshman year and I honestly lost my interest in why I'm doing what I'm doing. Honestly this video reminds why i wanted to study IR. Thank you so lich for doing this
Hello! Thank you for commenting. I made a video regarding what to do if you feel lost. It should be out soon. But, don't be hard on yourself, and give yourself grace and patience.
same javia. same
your words sound so familiar to me)) I'm also a freshman IR student
Thank you!!!! I feel God is giving me a sign to pursue as a Foreign Service Officer🙏🏻❤️ take care and God bless you
Thank you for watching and commenting! I hope you pursue your dreams :-)
This was a very inspirational video for me as I am a aspiring diplomat who's family is relatively poor and doesn't have political ties
I am cheering for you! You can do it! Thanks for commenting.
I love this video
It inspires me a lot
I speak German and English and I’m aiming to be a diplomat
I am inspired
Cheering you on ✨✨✨!!!!! You can do it. Thanks for commenting.
You really just blessed me with your testimony. I’m a dual citizen US/German working at the Frankfurt Consulate and I’m starting the foreign service interview process to move from the local side to a Direct Hire as a second career . So I’m gathering as much information as I can. I already appreciated your spirit in the beginning of the video , and then boom, sure enough, Jesus came out. :). Thanks for your joy and all the detailed information you provided. Blessings to you.
Hi Christopher! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment. That's wonderful! Cheering you on!!
Hi Christopher! I'm about to graduate this spring with a major in International Relations and minor in German, and am very interested in your current work at the Frankfurt Consulate! Obviously this is a bit unorthodox, but I would love to talk to you and learn more about your field if possible! Please let me know if you're able to correspond with me; thank you! 😊
I know this is an old video but the similarities between us are insane. I started college as pre-med, ended up transferring schools and changed to a double Sociology and history major, then dropped history and picked up IR as my second major. I’m about to graduate in a month and I’m moving to South Korea to teach ESL. I’ve been deciding on whether to go into a masters program for diplomacy after my initial year of teaching abroad. My goal all along has been to work in diplomacy or NGOs and I had someone just today tell me to look into being an FSO. I really liked your video and it’s definitely something for me to think about in the future. 😊
Hi Katie! Congratulations on your upcoming graduation! Thanks for watching. I wish you all the best during your time in S. Korea 🥰🥰I hope you stay tuned
Your journey to becoming a diplomat is very interesting! Congratulations on your post in Brazil - I look forward to hearing about your work and experiences there.
Thank you!! Stay tuned :-)
This is such an amazing and inspirational story! Not just for future Diplomats/IR majors, but for people of color or even people in general! You demonstrated how you kept going through setback to setback, and every time it seemed that you were closer to achieving what you wanted, something else would go wrong. However, instead of focusing on the negative aspects or setbacks, you looked for alternative ways to reach your path, even if it would take a year or more out of your life. There was always an opportunity somewhere if you looked hard enough and I believe there are so many disenfranchised people out there who need this type of positivity. It's definitely not going to be easy, and there's definitely going to be setbacks (depending on the person, some will have more than others), but as long as you keep your eye on the prize, keep telling yourself "everything's going to work out", especially in times where it might seem stupid to say so, everything really does seem to end up falling into place in the end, usually in ways that you will never expect, but pushing through hardships instead of dwelling on them will make the doors that open up much easier to see.
Thank you for this extremely eye-opening and inspirational video, and I can't wait to see how high this growth mentally will bring you!
And to everyone else: Keep Fighting
Thank you for your thoughtful comment. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave me this note. It is encouraging. Keep fighting!
I really want to be a diplomat and i didn't get any better video than this i hope we'll meet after 5 years thanks a lot for making me informed ❤
Aww you can do it! Thanks so much for your comment! I am rooting you on. You can definitely do it!!!
Listened from the beginning to the end as a sophomore college student who is also making the change from computer science. Your story is really inspiring and I hope to take a similar path as you!
Thank you for sharing! You definitely can do it and I'm cheering you on!
Absolutely love this. I always wanted to be a foreign service officer. Currently preparing to apply again within the next year. Thank you for the inspiration.
That’s amazing!!! Cheering you on!
You got this!
I usually don’t comment on YT. I have to say I’m extremely proud of you especially as someone from Baltimore as well. This pumped me up ✊🏿😤
Hi J Hall, thanks for commenting! Thank you so much! I'm glad it pumped you up 🙂
Your story is so awesome! This has inspired me to become a Diplomat and work for the Foreign Service! You’re channel was really a Godsend because I’m a senior in high school and your videos have really got me so interested, before this I had no idea what I wanted to go and study and had no true future aspiration. Hearing you talk about your experiences, jobs and opportunities truly made me feel like this what I want to do in my life! And God willing I will hopefully be able to achieve this!
Thank you for making these videos, Chelsea.
God bless you!!! ✝️🤍🙏🏼
Hello! Thank you for tuning in. Your comment means a lot. But this is exactly why I created this channel! Thank you for being apart of this community!
Is there any content you would like to see?
@@heymstraveler Thank you for replying. Any content would be awesome! But I would love to see a “day in the life” video. Just to see your daily tasks and what the life of a foreign service officer really is like.
@@alexkkx Thank you for the suggestion! Stay tuned :-)
Thank you for your video! I am a Spaniard who loves languages and wants to work in international affairs too. Your video was so inspiring! 🥰
Hi Alma! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! I will be sure to upload more international affairs content in the future :-)
You had me at beliver of God. 💕 I loved your video and you continue to inspire me to pursue my career in foreign service.
Thank you so much for watching! I am glad that the video was inspirational :-) And yes, He makes all things possible.
I know you posted this two years ago, but I can relate so much to your experiences. I also started off as pre-med, though I switched to International Studies. I studied abroad in Korea and I also taught English abroad. I’m currently in the process of graduate applications so this video is so motivating. I also feel the urge to study too. Unfortunately I can’t qualify for any of the fellowships because I wasn’t aware that you could drop classes until Sophmore year 2nd semester, so my gpa doesn’t qualify me.
What is the gpa requirement? Was not aware of this, I just started looking today and haven't come across a gpa requirement
❤
This is amazing!!! I feel like God is calling me to this. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Hearing you that you're a believer made me so happy. I'm waiting for God to give me these opportunities and I've learnt different things from your story. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Lewi! Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, He gets all the glory. Cheering you on!!
I love this! I just recently discovered FSO positions and am shocked because it checks off all of my boxes for what I want to do with my career. Thank you for sharing your story and shoutout to you for being featured on the US department of State's website of featured FSO bloggers!
Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment! I hope you stay tuned :-). Wishing you all the best on your journey!
This is my dream career since high school. Thank you for posting this
Hi Robbie! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Id love to become a diplomat too , your story is motivating me to get through my college years❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! I’m glad it’s a good motivation 😄. Thanks for commenting!!
This video has inspired me to pursue a career path in diplomacy, thank you so much!
Oh great! This is wonderful to hear. This is the main reason I decided to share my story. All the best! And thank you for watching and commenting!
I’m from the DMV too and your story is so inspiring. I’m currently a freshman at NYU for media & culture but minoring in politics. Your video has helped me solidify whether i wanted to become a cnn broadcaster or diplomat🥹 thanks for sharing your story!
That’s so wonderful!! Definitely explore all your options. Thanks for leaving a comment and watching ✨
Wow you are inspiring!!! Becoming a diplomat has always been a dream of mine since high school (am now 24 and trying to figure out what to do with my life). I've been letting fear of failure to hold me back from trying. I also studied abroad in South Korea (reached intermediate in Korean) and am Latina so speak Spanish fluently. I've also been putting off applying for Rangel because I feel as if I am not qualified. Will apply this year and God-willing that I will do this!!! Thank you for these informational videos!! Would love to get in touch with you
Thank you for your kind note! You can definitely do it!! And apply!! Sure, you can drop me a message through my site heymstraveler dot com. Cheering you on!!
Hi
thank you for this, I am in my last year of college and I am looking to take the FSO test in a few years. your videos give me hope. I also studied abroad and this year I realized this is something I want to do,, I went to South Korea, Japan and Vietnam + two other countries and I absolutely loved all my experiences
That sounds so amazing!! You are definitely on the right track l 😀😀 cheering you on !!
May the Lord bless all that you are doing, you are an inspiration! Thank you for your insight.
Wow thank you so much! May the Lord bless you too. Thank you for watching!!
Omg im so inspire!! Im a first gen college student freshman in community college planning on transferring to a good school where I can accomplish at least half of the things you have!! I’m hoping this gives me more motivation to not give up my dreams to work in a embassy or representing America! You really did it with no privileges or so much experience like me so maybe I can too, THANK YOU!
Aww I am cheering you on!!! You can do it!!
Love this, I recently got my GED but also certifications in Political subjects. I hope I can make it through your process. I studied abroad in high school in South Korea through a scholarship and speak 4 languages. I dropped out my senior year after having a lot of people close to me pass away. I hope to use some of anything I learned to my advantage.
Cheering you on! I wish you all the best. You got this!!
I graduated with a BS in political science and international relations and wound up teaching English and social studies but I hated it. I’m so glad I came across your video because I need a refresher. My first time out the country I went to South Africa and remember telling myself I would love to live there. I considered going into the military but I don’t think it’s for me and I feel so lost. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hi Keisha! Thank you so much for sharing. I am absolutely cheering you on!
Omg that's a amazing history, and welcome to brazil I think that you'll love here .
Thank you for watching! Obrigada!
Sending you much love and positive vibes!
Thank you so much!!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
thank you for this! i wanna be a diplomat when I grow up!!
That's great!! I hope your wildest dreams are realized!
Thank you so much for this video! I'm seriously and actively looking into this. I am a US permanent resident on track to receive citizenship in a couple of years. So I'm planning ahead and looking into study material. I'm an engineer in a cushy job. It's nice, but I can't see myself doing this for the rest of my life. Hopefully my lack of formal education in humanities/political sci. is not something that will hold me back!
Thank you for commenting and watching! I wish you all the best.
Thanks for sharing this stories, I'm currently studying international relations and diplomacy, and also learning languages.
You've inspired me.
Please check the description box. I share resources there.
OMG I am watching this because I am having a change of heart lol. My experience is kind of similar to yours. I took science and engineering in highschool thinking that I would be working in the STEM field, and I was wrong cuz everything is sooo hard for me. Now, I think im gonna switch to International Relations or International studies. Thank you for this video!
That's great!! Cheering you on!
BTW you're such a brave person,worked in this and that company or organization but pursued your dream.Highly respectable person😊
Thank you so much!! This means a lot. Hope you are well.
@@heymstraveler ❣
I was a couple of points off on my FSOT, this gives me encouragement to try again. Thank you :)
I heard that the FSOT isn't graded now?
@shadowmwo I don't know if it's changed this year, but last year it was still graded.
You can do it! Cheering you on
Thank you for sharing your remarkable journey of uncertainty that ultimately led you to a career where you'll excel. A truly inspirational story that I will share with those both confused and/or dis-illusioned. Every closed door opens another of oportunity..... but only for those willing to take the risk.
Congatulations for all you've achieved on the rocky road of uncertainty.
Thank you Brandon for your comment! Yes, I liked when you said every closed door opens another opportunity for those willing to take the risk! Hope you stay tuned!
I really love this story, I’m so glad that I found your channel. I’m currently a sophomore in college and working towards being a diplomat in the future too. I would love to connect with you.
Hi! Thank you! I am excited about your future :-). Sure, find my on IG (@heymstraveler) or shoot me an email, heymstraveler AT Gmail
Thanks for sharing. This is awesome & oddly quite relatable for me! Good luck on your global journey.
Hi! Glad it was relatable. I hope you stay tuned and wish you all the best too!
Thank you for this video. I'm buying the FSOT books today and going to start studying.
Great! I’m rooting for you.😀
Awesome story. Super inspiring taking the fsot for the third time this June. I live in Japan! Being abroad is a blessing and a great experience.
Thanks for the tips/sharing!
You got it! I'm cheering you on! And that is great that you are living in Japan. I hope to go there one day :-)
@@mathewdaniels2640 Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much!!! Your words about comparing yourself to others and lacking the confidence to try really resonated with me! I am graduating undergrad with Political Science/Intl Relations degrees, a study abroad experience, and doing NALCAP next year, this makes me feel like I am going in the right direction :)
You're going in the right direction. Keep going and never compare yourself to anyone!! You are gold!
I can watch this over and over
Glad you enjoy the video!
@@heymstraveler I just sent you a message on ig.... any suggestions on capoiera classes and is things opened up in Brazil if your still there..
Thank you for this video. I am leaning towards this career. I’m only 21 but i want to make sure i have a stable career now so i dont have to search later.
Thank you for this video. As someone who recently graduated with a first class degree in IR i feel a bit hopeful.
Yes!! You got it!! Thanks for watching
Beautiful lady!!! Congrats and blessings!!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for posting your story! I’m graduating from college and have a had a similar experience of being good at science but not having nearly as much passion for it as the work of diplomacy sounds. Your journey is so inspiring and I feel confident that I can pursue start the journey. Thank you again ❤
Thank you Kay!! Thanks for sharing. You can do it! Cheering you on.
This is awesome! I’m in the interest of doing FSO so this is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching and commenting! I hope you stay tuned 🙂
Hello! Im currently a senior high student and i feel a sense of connection with you through this video 😭 I’m studying in a hs that’s very focused on math & science just like you were. I was losing hope on whether or not i could continue to pursue diplomacy as a career but learning your journey to becoming a diplomat you motivated me again :) sadly only a few schools offer international studies/relations so I’m really hoping i can pass them 🥹
Aww thank you for the kind note!! You got this! I am cheering you on !! And if you’re in the U.S. you don’t necessarily need to pursue IR as a major to become a diplomat. In fact there is not a specific college major or degree required at this time for u.s foreign service officers
I am cheering you on!
Feeling completely stuck in life, and my degree path. Thank you for the information.
Glad this could be helpful! Cheering you on!
Hi Chelsea! (hope I wrote your name correctly) as a diplomat myself from Indonesia this video was very interesting to see how the journey of becoming a US diplomat is like. All the best to you, your career, and your channel. Your new subscriber and fellow diplomat, Lucky 😁🙏
Hi Lucky, thank you for watching! I just subscribed as well. I hope you have a wonderful New Year.
This is such an amazing and inspiring story. I love this so much because I feel encouraged to continue to pursue this path of diplomacy. I am an international student pursuing a double major in International Studies and Spanish. I have been questioning a lot of things because of the decisions I have to make soon and watching this video has provided me with so much clarity. I have an internship in Spain this summer and I can't wait to see what this path has in store for me. Thank you so much and continue to share your stories!
Cheering you on!! I wish you all the best. Thanks for commenting.
Omg, hope you like Brazil! Thank you for sharing your story.
Hi Luyza! Thank you for commenting and watching! So far, I am enjoying my experience in Brazil :-)
I am also aspiring to become a Diplomat someday. But I am a little bit confused and scared. Do diplomats get bored of being far away from their families and friends? But, Thank you for making this video. You inspired me and I wish you will the best.❤️
Thank you for watching! I hope you continue to watch. Don't let your life be dictated by fear. If you try something and it doesn't work, that's fine. At least you know you've tried.
@@heymstraveler awwww... Thank you so much. This means a lot to me. Keep on slaying it Ghurl! I’ll continue to support you🥰
@@manuelluz9129 Thank you!
My mom has been the ambassador of Dominican republic in morrocos and korea. i can tell you ALL about it!
Thank you for Sharing it is an inspirational story. God Bless you
Thank you for watching!! May God bless you too
Inspirational! 😊Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching!! Glad you enjoyed the video :-)
THIS VIDEO IS WHOLESOME.
Thank you so much!!! Thanks for watching !
Just came across this video- I’m 17 from Texas, but I want to move to Canada and get an undergraduate degree in political science, then a law degree in immigration law. After that my plan was to apply to be an FSO, and, honestly it all felt like a pipe dream that would never happen, especially representing a country that I’m not from, but I just feel so inspired and empowered by this video and by your story. Thank you for sharing this! Your story and you as a person are amazing and I can only hope to work as hard as you did to achieve my dream. :)
Thank you so much Gavin! Cheering you on! You can do it!!
Interesting! I think we were learning Spanish around the same time. I remember your videos from years ago. Nice to see you’re doing so well!
Thank you for always tuning in! I hope you are doing well!!
Girlll this video came on my recommended for a reason!! I as well strongly believe in Jesus Christ and I’ve been praying over choosing the right major as an undergrad, I’ve chosen a major with the opportunity to study abroad and learn another language because I want to work in international relations as well! Thank you for sharing your experience I am so greatfull! God bless you!
Thanks for watching! 🙏🏽
This is honestly my dream job and my goal but I don't really know how to get there. I feel like I have already missed the boat.
I graduated in IR last year and I wasn't able to do any of the government internships during my undergraduate studies (not that I didn't do internships. I did 2). But listening to your story i here a lot of similarities. I worked at my schools study abroad office and am headed to teach abroad next week actually. Thank you for sharing your story! It's very encouraging.
Sounds like I need to work on getting into that fellowship though 😭
Hi Jazzlyn! Congratulations on your graduation! That is something to be proud of. And you did not miss the boat by any means. Remember it's a marathon and not a sprint. Enjoy life. Take life one day at a time. And one day, you'll look up and say you've made it. For now, enjoy teaching overseas!
I’m not gonna lie I got freaked out when you said my name and I’m looking into doing this! Haha thank you
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing your story! That was really powerful!!!!
Thank you!
Amazing story! I’m glad to be part of the Rangel family ☺️
Welcome! Thanks for commenting.
Thanks for this story. I also came from a lower middle class here in the Philippines. Didn't know any diplomat and etc. But I did managed to pass the Foreign Tourism Officer assessment in my country. It was a far attempt but I've always wanted to be a diplomat and even took the Foreign service exam, though I know I am not really into the service part. I am glad though that I didn't stop even if the environment that I was in wasn't really into the diplomat thingy. Thanks for the inspo. ❤️
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
Brilliant 👏thanks for sharing. I also stumbled into Diplomacy and I did three years of duty in India. Awesome experience!!!
Thanks for commenting! I loved India!
@@heymstraveler Awesome stuff. So did I.
I think this is confirmation :)Thank you for sharing x
Thank you so much for sharing!
You are so welcome! Thanks for commenting and watching!
Hi, My name is Mariana I’m 17 and I’m Brazilian. I found your video and instantly connect with you love history and experiences. My dream has always been to go to a American university, travel the word while working and understand more about the word, but I never thought that it would be possible for a person like me, from a country like mine, but your video show me that yes, yes I can, you inspired me so much, thank so much for shared your experience.
I’m applying to Americans universities this year and I hope I get into one, and maybe onde day become a diplomat just like you ❤ (sorry if there is some writing mistakes)
keep going girl👊🏼💪🏼
Thank you so much!
Any tips for anyone aspiring to become a diplomat because I actually have an interest in political and international relations so I really wanna become one but I live in Malaysia :(
Hello! I do not have information about becoming a diplomat in Malaysia. I would check official guidance from the Malaysian government about the process there.
And this may not be applicable to your situation, but I made a video about college courses (through a U.S. context) that could be of interest. But please do your own research.
th-cam.com/video/xAoW1lZNuds/w-d-xo.html
Ooh another Malaysian!
So I have been on a rabbit role down career paths...
Yeah I'm subbing lol
Oh, great! I hope you stay tuned for future content!
Same! I'm still a high schooler, but becoming a diplomat is really speaking to me! I just wanted guidance on what I need to study in college lol.
@@kankenoh Hello! Thank you for your comment. I speak about that in this video:
th-cam.com/video/xAoW1lZNuds/w-d-xo.html
Great video,I got a little bit of guidance on what to research on becoming a diplomat
Thank you for your suggestion! Stay tuned.
I studied IR for Post-grad in the US and have been working to pursue a career as a diplomat. Problem is there is far more scope for this line of work in the United States than where I'm from in Canada. Lets see where this journey goes. All the best to you.
Hello, thank you for watching! I hope you reach your wildest dreams.
Thank you for sharing your story. Keep up the wonderful videos!😊
Thank you so much for commenting and watching!!
Amazing video, thanks for all the info! I'm in "Ensino médio" here in Brazil and considering becoming a diplomat and your video helped a lot! I saw that you stayed right next to me in Rio, I am from Campos dos Goytacazes in the Rio state. But anyway hope you enjoy our country, wishing you all the best
Hello! You can do it! Thank you for leaving a comment and watching! Wishing you all the best.
Thank you for this video! I graduated last year and have been on the fence about trying to apply for the foreign service. Would love to hear more about taking the FSOT/orals and the process of moving to your first post!
Thank you for the suggestion!
Thank you so much for making this video 💕 I'm a junior in highschool, but I've always known that I want to go to China and Korean one day, and I love both languages, but I had a few doubts about whether I could live in those places for a career as a diplomat, especially because I'm a bit of an introvert, don't have any experience being in Asia, and I'm also interested in/good at making video games and running businesses.
I believe God put this video in front of me for a reason!🙏 I suspected it from the moment you said you studied abroad in India, then I KNEW it when you said you worked in China! You being a Christian is also such encouragement, and I had a feeling you were a Christian since the beginning of the video! The Holy Spirit works in such unique ways. 🤗
Thank you so much for posting this! I'm going to look into the resources you have on your website and youtube channel! ❤
Thank you for the beautiful compliment. I'm glad you found this video useful! You can definitely do it. I would like to recommend this video:

These are college programs you can start looking into now! If you're interested in Korean and Chinese check out the Critical Language Program.
Another program is the NSLI program. www.nsliforyouth.org/ It is for those 15-18 years old who are interested in languages.
And thank you, God bless.

Amazing!! Thank you for sharing. It is really motivated me
I'm glad it motivated you. Keep pursuing your dreams!
I just graduated from my secondary school where I studied art and architecture. I applied for college where I got accepted into civil engineering but I really want to move and live in a different country and I don't think that this major would be rightful for it. So now I tried and got accepted to study career diplomat because that's my dream to work in embassy. I'm just nervous because it's gonna be something new and different than what I was used to study.
Hello! Thanks for sharing! That is a change, but I am cheering you on! You can do it 🙂
Thank you I learned so much

I just happened to open up my youtube app & your video was the 1st on my subscription list and I clicked on it before even realizing it was you (based on the title) lol!

Are diplomats allowed to make youtube videos about there daily life? Is it not a security concern? I'm curious..
