Who am I and how did I end up in Mexico City?

Introducing myself is always a hard task to me. There are a few things I hate more than talking about myself. I don't like doing this unless it's extremely necessary. And, unfortunately, I guess it's the case. Or otherwise, how could you possible trust someone you don't even know?

So here's some facts about me. My name is Gabriela. But no one, except my mom when she's furious, calls that way. So, unless you are trying to kill me, Gabi is just fine. I'm brazilian in every single way and the funny part about it is that I only noticed it in Mexico. So typically brazilian. I am 20 years old and such a drama queen. But I can't blame myself about this, once my zodiac sign is cancer. The fault is definitely on the stars. At this point, you might be asking yourselves, beyond using bad references what can this girl possible write about to help me or anyone else.

A few months I go, I went to Mexico studying one whole semester. All by my own. And I had the best and worst moments of my entire life. I had incredible moments. Moments I wish every person alive should have the chance to live or maybe just hear about. But I also had those moments when all I wanted to do was cry like a baby and wait for my mom to take care of me. Moments that I would have never pass through if someone had told me a small and precious tip.

Mexico was my best decision and I don't regret it for anything. I just want you to have the same, or even better, experiences that I had. I want you to love this country as much as I do and leave that place with half your heart Mexican. Maybe, then, you can inspire more people going there, just like I am trying to do right here.

I am Gabi and this is #lachicagabi journey to my loved Mexico.
