Mar LasquettyHello! My name is Mar, and I am a Spanish exchange student here at Berkeley, I’m pursuing a double degree in Law and Political Science. I'm passionate about a diverse range of activities As an avid reader, I spend a considerable amount of my free time buried in books, when I am not at the library you would find me hitting the gym for a rigorous workout session, jogging outdoors, or playing a competitive sport, staying active is a vital part of my daily routine. I find that physical exercise not only keeps me fit but also provides a mental refresh that's incredibly fulfilling. Cooking is another passion of mine; I prioritize making delicious, wholesome meals. For me, cooking is more than just a hobby, it's my love language. If I've cooked for you, know that you hold a special place in my heart. Feel free to come around and say hi! I hope we can meet soon. |
