I am an architecture and history enthusiastic. My mayor was in Theater in the University of Puerto Rico, I'm fluent in Spanish and English languages and Italian in a conversational level. Some of my passions aside history are dancing and arts. Overall I am an ultimate animal lover. Join me on a tour for a complete interpretation of a 500 year old city and all of the events and characters that helped develop my little Viejo San Juan.
