Overview
About Me
I'm a design student from San José, Costa Rica. Currently living in Germany for a semester abroad. I love design, art, music, theater, films, literature and of course food. I enjoy cooking and making art. I'm very open minded and enjoy meeting people from around the world with different backgrounds and cultures, as well as exploring around and getting to know new places.
