Hola from Mexico
My name is Verena, I am 28 years old and I am from Germany. Since 2019 I am living in Mexico City and absolutely love it.
In highschool I had the opportunity to do a school exchange in Venezuela for a year, where I learned Spanish, got to meet many people, learn about the culture and basically fell in love with Latin America. After that I always looked for possibilities to go back to Latin America, which is why I also lived some time in Ecuador and Colombia, doing interships and traveling. I always felt at home in Latin America and it was clear to me that after graduating, I would like to live in some Latin American country. In 2019 I was about to finish my Masters degree in Business and Development Studies in Copenhagen, and I decided to look for opportunities to write my Master thesis in another country. Luckily, I found an internship in Mexico and after graduating last year decided to stay and start working here
So I always loved to travel, see new places, learn about different cultures and languages and meet new people. I speak German, English and Spanish and I am very happy to be part of the Chatterbug community.
Talk to you soon!
Hola Verena,
great to have you with us! Welcome at Chatterbug!
Where in Ecuador did you live? And what about life in such a big city as Mexico is?
Hola, Verena Bienvenida! Me alegra que te sientas como en casa en Latinoamérica. ¿En qué ciudad de Colombia trabajaste? Soy de Bogotá y sé que muchas personas trabajaban a los alrededores. Mucha suerte con tus LL Have fun!
Hi Verena i also live in Mexico but up in Baja! Welcome to the community!
Thank you!
I lived for one year in Quito, I really enjoyed it. Mexico City is much bigger, which is sometimes a bit stressful, many people, a lot of traffic. But the city has a lot to offer, many parks, museums, restaurants etc.
You live in Ecuador ?
Amazing, I hope I can travel there soon. Everyone told me it is really nice up there!
Thank you! Let me know when you are planning on visiting Mexico Currently, I am working at a Fintech in the Social Impact area.
Muchas gracias. Trabajé unos meses en Bogotá, me encantó Colombia, espero poder volver pronto! Aún estas viviendo en Bogotá?
Hallo Verena!
Nachdem wir gesprochen haben, erinnerte ich mich an den Namen des Stadtteil von Mexiko-Stadt, den ich so sehr mag. Chapultepec.
¡Qué bueno! Me alegra que te haya gustado mi país . No, actualmente vivo en Alemania, yo también espero pronto poder visitar Bogotá de nuevo.
Yes, I live about 200 kilometers south of Quito near Riobamba. Quito is for me already too stressful, I prefer living in a little remote village in the mountains
Hallo, ja, das stimmt, CHapultepec ist sehr schön! Vor allem der Park ist sehr schön zum spazieren gehen!
