About Me

I am: a mezclado of Dominican and European, and can pass for everything from Italian and Jewish, to Mexican, Greek and Persian.. Short, but feel tall inside. The nice responsible one...with a growing tattoo collection and a penchant for the dark. Well travelled and can speak more than one language. A good friend, but will drop those who take me for granted. Everything in moderation, including excess... Constantly growing and learning from the lessons of each day. Honest. In love with my Mr. Monkee. Happy.
