About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm a young open-minded Chilean man, who loves traveling, getting to know about other cultures and languages, and meeting people from all over the world. I studied English Linguistics and Literature at Universidad de Chile, and I'm currently doing my master on Global Studies as well as working at a consulting firm.
I'm fluent in English and I can speak basic Portuguese and Swedish, though I would like to improve my skills in last both languages, and my dictionary of random words in others as well.
I like spending my time off hanging around with friends, sharing a beer, listening to music, watching movies and TV series, and reading books.
My favorite topic is Geography, so if you want to talk about capital cities, that'd be great.
