I was born with an intense curiosity about the world around me, as such, there is nothing I want more than to explore the world! New discoveries (be it people, culture, colours, stories, food, traditions, thoughts, or values) is what makes life worth living. To me, traveling is a way for us to discover and better understand ourselves.
I’ve done a lot of things in my life. So many different things, that at times I have feared that I might never find ‘my thing.’ I’ve been a travel agent, project coordinator, a volunteer, a sales associate and an avid multi-day hiker.
I’ve traveled. Italy, France, Germany, Netherlands, Turkey, Iran, Belgium, Georgia, Dubai, Canada, etc.
I am 27. Up to this point, I had a lot of beautiful moments and incredible adventures. I’ve met awesome people from everywhere. I visited fascinating lands, oceans, forests, and historical places such as old houses and inns to fortresses, castles and bridges. But something was missing…
I have always wanted to go on an exchange but I didn’t know where I wanted to go or when I wanted do it until it dawned on me that I’ve finished my Master’s degree and I haven’t even tried to make my goal a reality. So in December 2016, I made up my mind to grab the bull by the horns and nothing would stop me. I started my research on AIESEC opportunity portal and discovered the Global Leadership School program in Aguascalientes City in Mexico!
