One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was 17 years old, with other 3 class mates, we developed an Anti-Bullying project in my high school. In order to due so I had to receive training from US Associations during a month in an International Camp. Then for 10 months I had the opportunity to get to know so much people from my school and community.
All this experience opened my eyes and gave me purpose. Serving the community and traveling.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: In my home town, since I have memory, I have always helped other learn to speak and write in English.
Learn: I'm currently learning German, lets just say I'm still new on the field.
Share: The little experiences I have gained while working with others.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have so much to share to my hosts! And I would be delighted to do so.
If someone opens the door of his/her home she/he will not regret it!
First of all I love talking about my culture, set aside the cliches and really express the true colors of Mexico. Then also I like talking about a of the life I had in the United States when I was little. And finally I love community job and traveling, I can definitely share on that!
But then I also love sharing my time and listen to others, get to know them, specially if they are from other countries. For me its just amazing to listen to their backgrounds and ways of thinking :)
