“The only thing I know for certain is that I am a completely different person because of my time in Mexico.”

Don’t just say that - you have to show, how and why you are different. I liked the first part of your essay, but then it became “I had to learn a new way of life, but I adjusted, and now I am glad I had this experience” - a typical travel essay that should be avoided.
