I studied chemistry because it is a science that I love very much. I really like being in the laboratory making mixtures and learning more about them every day, I like to know about the properties of each substance and how they interact with each other. My purpose is to continue studying it when I return from my au pair year.
Please describe your hobbies
I try to go out every Sunday to ride a bicycle or skate around the city, I like to go out with my friends since I like to do these types of activities accompanied.
I really like to cook a variety of foods. I mainly like to prepare desserts. On a monthly basis, I like to go to hamburgers in town. I hope one day to have tasted all the best hamburger restaurants in Bogota.
I hope to share several of these experiences with the host kids. I think it is the best way to interact, get to know each other, and share.
