I LOVE traveling
Future diplomat, globe trekker, always an adventurer.

My goal: to visit every country in the world, and of course, meeting awesome people and helping others while I'm at it.

I enjoy traveling/backpacking, learning and reading National Geographic. I was born in Caracas Venezuela and I speak Spanish and English ( I'd LOVE to learn more languages!) I was a member of my high school's choir, debate team and Model UN Club. I've also earned distinctions for my academic performance.

I started my undergraduate studies at McGill University (Montreal, Canada) this fall.
