Hey there! I am a mathematics student at UCSB. I was born in Uruguay and lived in Israel for a little while. My main base is in LA now and I am going to study abroad in Bordeaux this year. I am also setting off on a eurotrip this summer and would love to experience new cities under the guidance of natives!
