A dream comes trueGabriela González Aguirre (Mexico): If I was to describe with one word myexperience in Kraków it would definitely be: incredible. It was unbelievable since thebeginning. Coming from México, it’s not usual to visit such a place, but I don’t regretchoosing Poland at all. I loved every second of it. Kraków it’s such a beautiful city. I didn’t know what to expect at the beginning, but it definitely blew my mind away. Thehistory written in its buildings, the impressive modernism in its galerias and museums,the beauty of its landscape and the warmness of the people; it all became my newhome for a semester, and I couldn’t have been happier. I spent the majority of my days with a smile on my face. School was sometimeschallenging but it really opened my mind as to what architecture really means. Thedesign process was somewhat different than in México, but it was an amazingopportunity to be able to learn another way of creating and designing a building.I found myself surrounded with people that taught me every day that you can alwayslearn more than you already have learned. I really believe that Kraków changed my life.I definitely am very grateful for being able to live this experience: getting to travel toother cities in Europe, meeting amazing people, discovering new ways of designing andfinding out that you can have more than just one home.
