Hey! My name is Mariana, I am a 26 year old mexican living in Mexico City. I have lived in Istanbul and have had the oportunity to visit some places in Europe, and North America. My favourite thing is to meet new people and learn new and exciting things about different cultures, food, history and places. I love to travel and live new adventures. I have been a traveler myself looking for native advice, so if I can help you with something like good advice about my city or just a simple and fun chat feel free I am up for it!

Music, Movies, and Books

My music tastes goes from every sort of latin sound like salsa, merengue, cumbia and even reggaeton, just everything that inspires you to move your hips, to other types like songs with beautiful lyrics, mostly every sound that touches your soul. Some of my other tastes include turkish pop songs, maybe this more like my guilty pleasure. If I were to mention names... Soda Stereo, Fito Paez, Arctic Monkeys, Burak Yeter, among many others.

My favourite movie would probably be one of the Harry Potter Saga or a romantic chick film.

My favourite book is "The Little Prince".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Istanbul to study for a semester, it was prbably one of my most daring adventures and one of the best experiences of my life, the places I visited, the people I met, the tea the coffee and the kebabs.
