My name is Krishna Thapa.I was born in Bhutan where I lived for 17 years.Then we were evicted from Bhutan and I came to Nepal as refugees.

When I was 10 years old I started my first class of primary school in Bhutan.My school was not far away from my home.After 8 years I completed primary school and began junior high school for 2 years.After that I went to secondary school for 2 years.After finishing secondary school.I began medical studies for 1.5 years in a medical institute.

When I completed medical studies I started to work in a Hospital in the Refugee camp in Nepal under supervision of United Nation High Commmision for Refugees (UNHCR). After some years I joined the technical staff.Unfortunitly I did not have the chance to continue my studies because the Bhutanese government made me a refugee,i,e a homeless and stateless person.

I could not continue my medicals because I was not able to afford the cost of the institute in Nepal.Luckly I got a small job in the refugee camp of our community.I worked here for 18 years for the welfare of the refugees.In 2007 UNHCR interduced the third country resettlement programme and I applied for the same. UNHCR processed my application. In 2009 the Australian government (Department of Home and Security) interviewed and brought me to Australia.I arrived in australia on 5th of may 2010.Now I am happy to be in Tasmania.
