Hello stranger! My name is Ximena (He-men-ah), I am a descendant of Granada, Nicaragua born and raised in Miami. I really want to become more cultured through travel or meet people that could really engage on a conversation . I have a double bachelors in Communications and Women and Gender Studies with a minor in Anthropology and Sociology (so talking really comes natural to me). Being knowledgeable of social issues and cultural norms is what sparks my interest in travel and meeting new people. I aspire to become a lobbyist for a non profit or a cause I agree with, like education. This is all just a brief piece of who I am and why I'm on here. Thanks for reading!
