Alexis is a 23-year-old student studying quantum physics. His master’s degree is the one that produces the most Nobel Prize winners in the world. But despite his prestigious studies, he has to work on the side to make a living.
Ever since he began his studies, Alexis has always managed to get by. His parents have never been able to support him financially, so he has worked every summer and has a job during the year alongside his studies.
But even with the student grant, housing subsidies and the money he earns from tutoring, making ends meet is still complicated.
