CURRENT MISSION

Develop myself and know different cultures and people

ABOUT ME

My name is Juan Cruz and I'm 24 years old. I've studied Journalism at Deusto University in San Sebastian, Spain. Now, once I've finished my studies, I want to improve my journalist skills and english level, and learn other languages such as french, italian or german.

I love to travel and I have been to travel quite a lot in Europe and the Americas.

I would consider myself as a very outgoing person. I try to be always positive and I am always up for a new experience. I was on exchange in Monterrey, Mexico, for half a year in 2010. I loved living there. Mexico has a lot of nice and open-minded people, great food and a very interesting culture.

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy and try to spread it. Carpe diem! Life is too brief.
