I am a sweet and spicy half-Mexican woman born in California. I have lived all over the United States, as well as abroad in Peru and Spain.

Everyone has something to share with the world, what better way than through this global network!

兴趣

1. Dance: When I started dancing, I fell in love with life. You could say "la música es mi droga y mi alcohol" because I will jump at any chance to get groovy. So don't say yes, just take my hand and dance with me!

2. Hiking: Ever since I got rid of my car, I have discovered an infinite love for walking. In 2015, I walked 500km of the Camino de Santiago and definitely plan on doing it again!

3. Learning Languages: I have spoken Spanish and English since I was born and am craving a new language, currently learning French and Portuguese, this may change tomorrow :P

4. Travel: I mean, of course...I'm an addict.

5. Astrology: Ok, only because I'm a Gemini and I feel like 2 people in 1 body (aka always trying to figure myself out). But I also enjoy seeing if people resonate with their sign or not and why. I essentially love to see what shapes people's personalities: experiences, genetic predisposition, or the stars? ;)

6: Optimism: Perhaps this is less of an interest and more of a philosophy, but I am always interested as to why people gravitate towards optimism or pessimism. In the end we all have a choice: we choose how we react to the world around us, the things we can and cannot control.

7: Reading: One of the most delicious things in the world is to curl up in a blanket and read a book...mmm...

8. Veganism: I read a book that flipped my world upside down in 2015 ("The World Peace Diet") and I went vegan. Now I love eating more than ever, but no worries if you don't agree with the philosophy! No judgment here :)

9. Laughing: I am known for my laugh. You will find out why if you stay with me or host me LOL

10: Smiling: I'm usually found with a slight grin on my face at all times. Yes it's authentic, I'm simply in love with the world :) shown to boost your dopamine too wooo!
