I'm a visual artist from Bogotá, Colombia. I have been living in Washington, D.C for one year and a half. I love to improve my knowledge about the universal culture through to meet new people, talk about food, art, history, and literature. I love to travel and explore the world, I think that is the most important way for knowing about ourselves. Also I practice meditation and kundalini yoga is very important for me to explore my spirituality and to know different kinds of espiritual paths. Addicionally, I love to share the colombian culture, such as food, music, art, and dances.
