Why do you want to be a vet?

As a child I wanted to be a lot of things, dancer, teacher, doctor, astronaut and even supermarket cashier, but the idea of ​​being a doctor was always present although I did not always know if what you wanted was medicine in humans or animals.

But I finally chose veterinary medicine because I feel it brings me greater personal satisfaction to save, care and protect the fauna of our country and the world.

Before applying to university, I went through many career options like nursing, nutrition, engineering in biotechnology, pedagogy and human medicine , but none of them convinced me as much as veterinary medicine did and its multiple ways of applying it.

My university experience has been quite good so far, I like the campus and this animals, the good relationship between students and the good friends I have found here. the only thing that I did not like about this experience is the difficult thing that makes me get here, but my desire to be a veterinarian is much greater.

My dream job as a veterinarian is in the field, or in the south of our country, specializing in big animals.

My Favourite Thing

My favorite thing in the world are my rollskates

My rollskates bought them when I was 5 years old and since then they became the most precious thing of my childhood.

I remember that I took care of them like a treasure, cleaned them after use and tried not to damage them.

As a child I used them only when I attended my artistic skating classes in the afternoons after school, but over time I wanted to use them for everything, I remember that I walked around the house all day with them and even went out to buy with them.

I loved those rollskates because they allowed me to move from one place to another with incredible ease, I loved that I could use them for artistic presentations but also to move around.

my childhood without them clearly would have been very different, I think I can not imagine it without them, I think maybe I would have died of boredom if I had not had them
