ABOUT ME
I'm 26 years old, half Spanish half Filipino, grew up in L.A., and went to college on the east coast (of the US). I've lived and worked in South Korea, Spain, and Mexico, in that order (was an English teacher in Seoul, did marketing in Barcelona, and worked as a business analyst at an NGO in Mexico City). I love to travel and meet new people, and I tend to adapt pretty well to new environments. I'm back in Spain and on the job hunt. A ver lo que sale! :)
