 Meet one of my students:

Ezequiel Garrido, 23 years old, born in Isla Mujeres, Mexico.

“I am interested in learning more about Bitcoin because I believe it offers a path to economic freedom and stability. This, in turn, would enable me to fulfill myself more as a person, help my family, and pursue my dreams of traveling and exploring the world. I also see it as an opportunity to start independent projects and become self-sustainable. (I remember hearing about Bitcoin from a YouTuber when I was 15 and briefly tried cryptocurrency mining. However, I couldn't delve deeply into it, lost my account, and only rediscovered Bitcoin when I started working at Mayakita.)

Living in Isla Mujeres, a renowned tourist destination, has its challenges. The increase in the value of the dollar has made things difficult, as many transportation and private services prioritize foreign currencies like the dollar or euro, leading to economic discrimination within the community.” - translated from Spanish
