Hello everyone, I’m Michael Martinez. I’m 21-years-old. I was born in 2000 in Colombia, I live in Bogota, a city between mountains. I live with my parents, the funniest couple, my brother, the tallest, and my sister the most beautiful. I am the most intelligent, I hope so. I am studying of international business. I don’t have much time for hobbies these days, but I always wanted to improve my English, so now I’m studying English at Platzi. The next month I will travel to Medellin, it is about 500 kilometers away. I did buy the tickets (I’d rather use: I bought the tickets, unless you want to emphasize that you are the one who bought them), my mom is enthusiastic (excited is maybe a more common way of saying that) about her vacations.

I have two close friends, Lina and Gaby. I really love watches so, I decided to create my own shop. I work hardly for (to) make better my shop. I’m intersecting (interested) about crypto, so I’m studying in Platzi, I’m holding my Bitcoin. I would like travel to Australia, I will study a master in supply chains and Australia is one of the most interesting countries for me. This was the introducing (introduction of) myself. (You could’ve also said: That was my introduction) Thanks everyone for listen me (listening to me). Never stop learning. Bye.
