MY TRIP TO MEXICO
Hi guys, Good Afternoon!!
My name is Lizeth Balaguera, I’m from Bogotá, I’m a Public Accountant, I work as
Payroll Coordinator … I going to talk about my trip to Mexico, which I did for take a
course about NIIF, In English is called “International Financial Reporting Standards”
The trip was In 2015 January, I went In DF with 20 classmates and my best friends were
2, we stayed in an aparthotel, there were 2 rooms a kitchen and a bath, there’s a big closet
for all, I went in D.F, In there city the weather was cold, because it was in winter (there
they manage seasons), I made lunch every day, seasoned and they use many legumes and
peas.
It was an opportunity to know the most emblematic and tourist places of D.F…I was in
amazing sites, the first place that visited was the central plaza called “Zocalo” for arrive
you can take the bus, taxi or subway, there we met a Mexican Family, they taught us the
poorest neighborhoods, after we went to “Teotihuacan’s Pyramids” there are two,
pyramid of the sun with 65 meters of height and 140 for 150 of base, the pyramid of the
moon it was a historical place for public rituals, also I knew “The Chapultepec Zoo” its
logo is a jaguar, that site has very important native species, also I visited “The
Xochimilco’s Trajineras” that place was fantastic because I felt the Mexican culture so
beautiful, each trajinera serves for the transport from 10 to 25 people and is used on calm
waters, also I was in “The Wax Museum” there to see the most important famous or
figures of the world, there I took many pictures, I visited “Castle Chapultepec” too It has
various courtyards, stairways, gardens, lobbies, halls and large spaces characteristic of the
buildings of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, also I knew “Basilica of
Guadalupe”, “Palace Museum Fine Arts”, “The Angel of Independence”, “Garibaldi
Square”, “Park Sixflags”, “Aztec Stadium” and finally the cities Cancun and Acapulco,
from the two cities, I really like Acapulco, its majestic, Cancun also is divine, but it's
more technology since has a lot of foreign visitors
This experience was tremendous, since I had not left the country. You should go to
Mexico!
