About Me

CURRENT MISSION

well my objective is just to be happy, not the reality blinded happiness, but the realistic - optimistic.

ABOUT ME

first of all, i love people, i believe in people. that makes me an outgoing happy girl. i love music, and i love to listen people singing (i sing awful). i dont like over enthusiastic people, they get on my nerves. big chatter: silly stuff or big stuff, depends on the moment. i enjoy reading, specially books which particular historic contexts. i like dancing and learning from other people new stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

hmm love and be loved. love comes in diferent colors, shapes and persons

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

well, last year i traveled to DC, USA. there we joined other american (not just from USA) students for a OAS event. It was great to see how young people fight and argue discussing world wide problems, poverty and ways to make this a better place. though it was just a model, there are (self included) people who cares about others, even if those others belong to another country or culture.

Teach, Learn, Share

i hope everyone learns from me diferent things, i can only say i offer a good time, bad jokes and big smiles (sorry, got no more). i can share my culture, my experiences and the opportunity to get to know Colombia by the hand of one person.

Countries I’ve Visited

Colombia, United States
