ABOUT ME Checkout my Instagram! @raphalia_conaltura I like to lead a balanced lifestyle. I'm currently learning how to surf and I enjoy dabbling in LA's underground nightlife. I am very organized, but I am very spontaneous when it comes to everyday activities. I really enjoyed studying physics and computer science but find immense value in literature and the arts. I really appreciate connecting with people. As I've found, no matter where you've come from, there are countless similarities between all of us. As my good friend once put it: "Talk to the person next to you. You share life in common."

One Amazing Thing I've Done
1) Went to Rio de Janeiro for Carnaval this year. Best time I've ever had, hands down. 2) Worked at a summer internship at CERN, the high energy physics laboratory.
Teach, Learn, Share
This summer I was a teacher for a program named "Girls Who Code", a not-for-profit summer educational program to teach high school girls computer science and increase the number of women in technology! I love to teach. I feel that it really gives me a purpose.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I would really enjoy learning about my hosts and sharing experiences with them! I am interested in much more beyond computer science and physics. I hope to find a beautiful purpose in life. As of now, I believe teaching and learning about other ways of life are a good way to live.
My Interests
Simply put, my interests are working on something I love with people I love. I spend my time being active. As the saying goes, "Motion is the cure for grief".
