Get ready to explore CDMX with your favorite 2027 Baltics!! Mexico City is the perfect mix of chaos, culture, incredible food, nightlife, and hidden gems: one minute you’re wandering through historic streets, the next you’re dancing on a trajinera in Xochimilco or eating tacos at 2am. Expect a mix of fun cultural events, beautiful streets, lots of bonding (!), shopping, and tacos, tequila* and mezcal! We hope to curate the best possible kick-off to the start of core!

Meet your Trip Leaders:

• Ximena Morales: Mexico City girly, foodie, and passionate traveler. My perfect day: brunch at a cute café, window shopping, a sweet treat and daytime drinking. I’m currently working on my patience (aka I started ceramics), joined Follies, The Yarn, FinTech Club, SWIM, and of course the Latin Mafia!!
• Zara Inam: A fellow Baltic Penguin and designated person most likely to find a study room in E62! I grew up in Atlanta, but was living in Cambridge prior to Sloan. I’m part of Sloan Senate and involved in various climate and energy initiatives. I’m a big fan of music (consistently Spotify’s top listeners worldwide 😮‍💨), food, chilling with friends, reading, traveling, dancing, and apparently speaking Spanish when drunk.
• Julia Zou: Proud Baltic! I grew up in New Jersey and lived in Cambridge for five years before Sloan (ask me for recs). Core Mentor, DMD TA for the Baltics, Baltic CBC (shoutout Chicken Chase), and a climate girly with Zara. I love skiing, pottery, tennis, and hosting friends, and most of my time and money currently go to my giant dog, Tank, but we love him lots.
• Alex Chung: Fellow Baltic Penguin! Army vet with a love for travel, wine (currently pursuing my Certified Sommelier designation), and calligraphy. I grew up between Hong Kong, Seoul, and New York, and pay homage to my Asian roots by convincing friends to make late-night trips to KBBQ in Allston or Yume Ga Arukara in Porter Square.
• Olivia Rodriguez: Proud Baltic Petrel, Co-President of the Design Club, Core Mentor (see you all at orientation!), and one of the Chicken Chase chickens alongside Julia. I love dark chocolate, dogs, art, failed book clubs, and running, although sometimes I also hate running. Originally from New York but have also lived in Baltimore, Chicago, and now Boston. This summer I’ll be practicing my Spanish by rewatching sitcoms before we take on CDMX.

*Not included in the trip price: airfare, airport transfers, extra drinks beyond main events, and personal expenses such as keepsakes, gifts, or additional purchases during the trip.
