About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission at the moment is to find out where my friends and I want to travel on our two week trip to Europe, and find a way to do it cheaply.

ABOUT ME

I was raised by my mother and her family. Her family came from Cuba in the late 1950's so, though I was raised in Chattanooga, TN, I claim the Cuban culture as my heritage. I understand Spanish mostly fluently and speak it moderately well. One day I really want to visit Cuba.

I'm at a time in my life where I don't really know where I'm headed. But the way I look at it, I'm young and I have time to figure it out.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know what happens when we die. All I know is that we should live life as best we can, treating people with kindness and respect, have fun and work hard.
