CURRENT MISSION

To explore New York!

ABOUT ME

Hi there! I'm Pilar, 29 years old. I'm Honduran-Chilean. I've spend a total of 14 years in my hometown, Tegucigalpa, Honduras and the other 14 years abroad. I've lived in Cairo, Egypt; Santiago, Chile; Tokyo, Japan; Washington, DC and now I work in New York City.

I've learned to embrace my circumstantial eclectic upbringing and can honestly say that, I enjoy making friends and connecting with like-minded people from all over the world!

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy each day as it will never come again!
