CURRENT MISSION

Helping build positive stories with local kids at risk due to drug addiction/prostitution

ABOUT ME

Short, talker, as well as listener, so know when to shut up, in fact shut up until solid on opinion. Colombian, obviously. Easygoing, but strict with myself as a guest. I used to wear glasses, not anymore, so legally blind, I am. Then again, it doesn't take much to distract me, so not wearing glasses helps me concentrate, which is my natural state, that is being focused on living.
