About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To eat street foods all over the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm easygoing, passionate and very very curious. A bit on the quiet side at the beginning. I'm a software engineer, rookie capoeirista, on-and-off volunteer and music lover born and raised in Mexico and now based in the US.
