I have always been a globetrotter at heart. Growing up, I travelled to my mother's home country of Cuba at least once a year, and I have had the great fortune of crisscrossing Southern Europe and making a couple stops in North America as a young adult. Spending half a year in Madrid, Spain is surely the highlight of my travel repertoire. It is a city full of life, and a melting pot of cultures from all over the world. My time living there inspired me to pursue new horizons, and kickstarted a life full of travel. I really am happiest boarding pass in one hand, suitcase in the other. I am excited to share my passion for bringing different worlds closer together with others.

Becoming a local with my study abroad pals in Florence, sipping wine, and spending the evening meandering carefree along the cobblestone streets.
