My first experience with GNU/Linux operating system was in 2009 at a GNU/Linux course organized by James Michael DuPont which is the founder of a non-profit here called [http://flossk.org FLOSSK], where I am also a member. I am one of the organisers of [http://kosovasoftwarefreedom.org Software Freedom Kosova] an annual F/LOSS Conference.
My first experience with GNU/Linux was in early 2009 at a GNU/Linux course organized by FLOSSK, back then I firstly started using Ubuntu then I switched to Fedora in early 2010 and on the 13th of October 2010 I was sponsored as an Ambassador, mentored by [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Biertie Bert Desmet] supported by [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Robert Robert Scheck].
 
Since I got into F/LOSS, I always heard about Fedora and always wanted to know more about it. I installed the distribution of Fedora on my computer on May 2010 and on October 2010 I've became an official Ambassador, mentored by [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Biertie Bert Desmet].
