Hi!
My name is Martin Restrepo. I am 18 years old and I am a freshman at Georgia Tech. My major is Industrial Engineering. I was born in Medellin, Colombia (South America). I have lived there almost all my life. Between 2002 and 2004 I moved with my family to Miami, Florida. I graduated from school last year and spent the first semester of this year in France. I stayed with a host family in a small town outside of Paris called Tours. I studied French while I was there and I got the chance to travel all around Europe. I had the chance to spend the summer with my family before moving to Atlanta. We traveled to Asia and visited several countries, including China, Japan, Thailand and Cambodia. The trip was amazing.

  1. Wow, you've had a pretty exciting life! I have always wanted to travel to countries too but so far I haven't gone out of the country. So that means you know like 3 languages. The only other languages I know are Latin from classes in high school and Korean from my mom.
