CURRENT MISSION

I would love to see something I've never seen in Puerto Rico which is the same boring beaches and I want to see more than that. Quiero ver mas que playas de Puerto Rico, quiero ver montanyas y congelarme por el frio que haya.

ABOUT ME

As you see, my name is Ilia Firpo. I'm from a small turistic town called Rincon in Puerto Rico. I've recently moved to Toledo, Spain while I study abroad there. So, while I'm here I simply would love to visit a few places. I tend to be very introverted with people I haven't known for at least of few months but tend to be very simpathetic. I don't start conversations but I try to keep up with them. I'm a biology major since is the only subject I find it hard.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe you don't find out how does your life works, you create it and that's it. Besides that I would say that I'm liberal with some conservative tendencies. I'm a Christian and a Christ follower, not a tradition follower.
