In this interview, the speaker recounts his brief experience at the Universidad del Caribe in Cancun, where he pursued a publicly funded gastronomy degree—the first of its kind for the hospitality industry. After moving from Veracruz to Cancun, he simultaneously took on a variety of jobs: a kitchen position, hotel photography for souvenir merchandise, and street‑level sales of bracelets and other items. By age 16‑17 he was earning around 5,000 pesos a weekend, which gave him financial independence. He describes the first semester of university as stagnant, feeling that he was “going backwards” and not learning practical skills. The combination of lucrative work, a perception that the curriculum was not advancing his abilities, and the desire to keep earning led him to leave the program after roughly one and a half semesters, before the academic cycle ended. The narrative highlights his decision‑making process, the role of accessible public education, and the contrast between formal study and hands‑on entrepreneurial work.
