Any critique? How can I word this in a higher level of language?

The moment I stepped out of Port-Au-Prince airport and breathed in the foreign, humid air, I strangely felt at home. Venturing out of my comfort zone and into this unknown, Caribbean territory, I smile at my ardor and commitment to international relations.
IR is not my academic interest; rather, it's a field that spins my world. Raised in a multinational family, I spend my weekends skyping or emailing my extended family and friends across the continents, cultivating my proficiency in three languages and familiarity in two others. These Saturday evening conversations promoted my international understanding, and exposed me to the social, cultural, and political differences between my home in the US and my family in the rest of the world. As a child, the conversations were friendly and fun, creating this image of a small, peaceful world in my five year old brain. As I matured out of my innocence, global conflicts and poverty distort my childhood vision, compelling me to pursue IR and serve humanity.
