I was born in Guadalajara and spent the majority of 18 years there. Guadalajara is one of the 3 biggest cities in Mexico, and it is know as the Silicon Valley of Latin America.<\/p>\n

During those 18 years in Guadalajara I also spent two years abroad in 3 different exchange programs in Germany<\/p>\n

I went to a German international school, where I started learning numbers in German when I was just four. <\/span><\/p>\n

I completed my IB in the German language and had three unique exchange experiences at different points in my life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Having an Irish father and a Mexican mother is quite a unique combination. Growing up with two different cultures, customs, and perspectives makes you see the world in a very different way compared to the traditional catholic Mexican household.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
