    I started my first Drupal site half a year ago only while living in Portugal: www.internationalhumanistparty.org without much previous programming experience. I learned a lot from the book Pro Drupal Development, and used that knowledge to develop a voting system for our organization's internal elections (national and international coordinating teams). I love Drupal and hope to get a job in the future. One of my interests is to develop a module that improves Drupal's multilingual features.
