Hope everyone is doing great!
I'm looking to help a lot of people with translation services and some real indepth understanding of the Spanish language and Mexican culture. If you get chance check out my profile and let me know "sincerely" what you think, and feel free to make any suggestions.
Gracias!

Salvador, your translator profile seems to be weak to me.
You mainly talk about yourself and the story of your life, how you were born in one country and then moved to another country, but:
1) clients do not care about your past, or the cultural shocks you faced;
2) clients knowing well the field of translation usually stay away from "translators" whose only skill is knowing well two languages. That is not enough. Experience in translation is required, along with great writing skills in the target language.
You have no portfolio or employment history showing your real experience.
Last but not least, the last sentence is puzzling: "So if you've been to Mexico or are planning on going, I can help you better understand the culture and help you to be better prepared for a more enjoyable experience." - are you offering interpreting services? Travel planning services? It is really ambiguous and apparently has nothing to do with translation services.
At this stage, I guess that you could benefit from some Academy courses: https://community.upwork.com/t5/Academy/ct-p/Academy
