About Me
Very easygoing person. Love meeting new people and places. Optimistic all the time, with a lot of sense of humor and smiles to share. Like to read, skateboard, run, exercise and most of all, to cook. I love music and dancing is one of my passions. If I could choose 3 things in my life it would be to cook, travel and dance! 🙂
