About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I really really want to experience different cultures and meet new people....basically make the best of the short time I have here on this planet.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Trinidad and Tobago and I would say that I had a really good childhood. Unfortunately my mom died when I was 10 and since then my dad has raised my sister and me all on his own (I love him endlessly).

I've always been interested in different cultures and languages, so that's why I chose to study Spanish at University (the University of the West Indies to be exact). My major is not Spanish though; it's Latin American Studies. I'm also doing double minors in International Relations and Spanish.

My love for new experiences has brought me to Bogota, Colombia where I am working as an English Assistant in the National Pedagogic University. So far the experience has been great and I look forward to whatever comes up next. I particularly like going to parks, concerts and being outdoors....my aim is to go to the coast and to see as much of this beautiful country as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change you wish to see in the world....Mahatma Ghandi
