I hope to work in Mexico too. I love cooking and experiment with different cuisines, in particular, Asian dishes.  The spicier the better :) Feel free to add post a comment/ask a question.]]> 2021-06-24 13:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/helencostello2_4/Lesson1_Getting_to_know_you_paragraph/wish/1623552560 https://padlet.com/helencostello2_4/Lesson1_Getting_to_know_you_paragraph/wish/1628668583 Hey there! My name is Eduardo, you can all call me Eddie. I am a Mexican student from the UABC (Autonomous University of Baja California) at Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. I love dogs (sadly I don’t have one yet), watching series and playing video games. I considered myself a very introvert person that love the rainy days. I had the chance to live in 2 countries so far (The US and Mexico), and I hope I get the chance to experience the UK life. I also love my career, I studied chemical engineering and I’m seeking to keep learning about it in a postgraduate degree. By the way, I like to making new friends, feel free to comment/ask a question. ]]> 2021-06-28 16:44:41 UTC https://padlet.com/helencostello2_4/Lesson1_Getting_to_know_you_paragraph/wish/1628668583 migueldejesuschavezhernandez https://padlet.com/helencostello2_4/Lesson1_Getting_to_know_you_paragraph/wish/1628839993 Hi my name is Miguel. I am from Playas de Rosarito a small town in Baja California, Mexico. It is small but entertaining and beautiful that is why the tourists love it so I kind of feel proud of it. I love the food in general but if I have to choose one it would definitely be spicy chicken. I studied Chemical Engineering at Universidad Autonoma de Baja California. My main field of interest is materials in order to improve people’s health in the future through research and development, with biomaterials for example. The UK is my way to go because they are very advanced in this field and I want to learn from the best. If I have the opportunity to go to the UK I want to visit all the libraries that I can and read those expensive but rich in knowledge books. Also want to visit research centers if it is possible. Feel free to recommend me movies, books or series, especially the sci-fi ones. Nice to meet you every one.

My name is Maria and I am from Mexicali (the hottest city in Mexico). I studied bioengineering at Universidad Autonoma de Baja California and  I'm going to start my master's degree in the field of tissue culture and cancer.
I am totally an extrovert. I love dancing, going out, karaoke and traveling, but I also love to read, all kinds of pets, running and eating as much food as I possibly can. If I had to choose only one food for the rest of my life it would be Japanese. 
I look forward meeting all of you and if you come visit my city contact me and I would take you to a culinary tour. ;)
I'm going to leave a photo of some of the food we have over here, feel free to ask anything!

My favorite food is tacos al pastor, I like to watch movies and tv series with crime and sci-fi plots, my favorite tv serie is Better Call Saul a spin-off of Breaking Bad and my favorite movie is Pacific Rim.
For the last couple of years I have been working a lot with drones, so I'll leave you a picture of me with the drone we are currently using to get the topography of a new project which is going to be designed.
