A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am a 19-year-old autistic young man living in the Cathays area of Cardiff with my parents. My first language is Greek and second language is English.

I enjoy going out and sticking to a routine, but I do have difficulty understanding rules and boundaries, I appreciate routine. I can be sociable with people who I am familiar with and get to know but not with strangers due to limitations caused by Autism. I enjoy travelling by car to different shops, I like watching videos on YouTube and listening to music. I have trouble with being told ‘no’, people using an abrupt tone of voice and shouting. I also hate being surprised by unexpected touch and sudden movements.

I need to be informed beforehand or may react in an unpredictable way.
