Age 21
Major: Business
Class: Senior

Home Country: Spain
Languages: Spanish & English

My name is Adriana Salamanca. I was born in Madrid, Spain. I am a business management student in my third year of college. English and Spanish are the two languages I can speak.

My favorite family vacation was to Morocco. I adored the local cuisine, historical sites, and vibrant markets filled with handcrafted jewelry, ornaments, and enormous carpets. Horseback riding, which I've done since I was a young child, however, I don't compete professionally is my hobbie.

I also like to bake cakes for special ocassions at my house. In my top the list of favorite foods stands out: Spanish homelets, Spanish broken eggs, and Spanish croquettes. On the other hand, reeses and buttered popcorn, are my favorite American snacks. The taste is a mixture of salty and sweet, they are not healthy, but they take away mid-morning or afternoon hunger.

The beach with the peace rock on campus is one of my favorite spots because you can relax while watching the waves and even read. Given that I've had the opportunity to act in secondary roles in musicals, my ideal job would be become an actress of a musical shows.

As a superhero I prefer Wonder Woman because she is quick, powerful, and trained to take down bad guys. Mamma Mia, which features songs by the band ABBA in between scenes, is my favorite movie.

Finally, Ed Sheeran is my favorite singer because I enjoy all of his songs, especially "Perfect".

The places I have visited throughout my life are: Spain, the country where I am from. Every year in August we stay in the north of Spain, especially in Galicia. And the rest of the months, I stay in Madrid.

Home Country: Bermuda
Languages: English

 I have not traveled to many places yet, but my favorite is probably Eleuthera in the Bahamas as it felt like I was home but was still all very new to me.

My favorite activity by far is scuba diving as there is something so peaceful about breathing under water and being able to explore a world that is so alien to us but I also enjoy volleyball.
I don’t really have a favorite food but I guess watermelon is really good my favorite American candy is probably skittles or starburst they are both so good.

My favorite place in campus is the wax as it is just a really nice place to chill out and do some work whether it’s in a classroom late at night or if it’s just outside eat during the day.

My favorite movie and superhero tie into each other as I love Ironman and Ironman 1 was an amazing movie and kickstarted my favorite movie universe. I also love the Flash and Batman as they are consistently amazing characters I’m not quite sure what my dream job is but it has to be something with geography and weather as it’s what interests me most.

That’s should wrap up everything about me really other then my favorite music genera is rap.
