I am going to the Inter-American University of Development, the career I am studying is tourism business administration. At the beginning I was very clear that I wanted to study, I wanted to know how to travel and learn more about tourist places, they all have a story, some are very moving, I chose that career because I I like it and in high school they showed us about tourism. There I learned a lot about the most visited places.

Many people have inspired me to study because they know the potential I have and that I am intelligent. There were times when I wanted to give up, but many gave me very good advice and I took it. I want to be a better person and show that I can achieve many things from the easy to the difficult ones because the more difficult they are, the more new things I learn.

The people I live with are a very big family. They have done a lot for me. I grew up in an orphanage since I was 9 years old. The truth is, I thank God for giving me the opportunity to give myself a better life. Since I arrived there, I felt cared for and protected, they taught me many things that I didn't know. Sometimes it was difficult for me because my thoughts and emotions fell apart, but I always had someone who would lift me up with a smile with their scoldings. Thanks to those scoldings I learned to be a better person. I like to help take care of children. I like to help in whatever way I can.

Sometimes I am afraid to see the future because I feel that it is going to be a long road, but I know that I can and I will not give up. I have a lot to give and a lot of potential. I would like to create my own cafeteria because it is a place of rest and relaxation. It is a place that is as if you were at home, he adjusted and without any worry, that is my goal.

I have learned many things at the university, we have traveled in groups and visited new places, they have taken us to hotels to learn more about what it is like and why it works like it does and also how to treat clients. The truth is, hotel business administration is a very difficult subject. The teacher is very professional that is why he makes things more difficult for us because in the future we will be professionals like him.

When I don't have any homework or I'm resting, I watch Korean, Chinese or Japanese series, they're really good. I would like to learn those languages, I would love to, but in the future, I first have to focus on English, since in tourism, it is very important to learn English.
