About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surf the World

ABOUT ME

I am currently a flight attendant for Southwest Airlines. I have been working for the company for 20 years. Been taking a hiatus from flighing overseas but I am ready to surf the world. I was recently in Bogota visiting my brother. I had a great time with him and watching him prosper. I am fluent in Spanish and English. I understand some Portuguese. I grew up in Colombia but I have been in the US since 92. I grew up in a large family. We are 6 all together. I have only one sister and she is the youngest one. She and I are very close. My sister named me her baby's godfather.

PHILOSOPHY

What goes around comes around. The golden rule.
I like a saying in SPanish, "Lo que por agua vino por agua se va". It could be different from country to country.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pan's Labyrinth, Y Tu Mama Tambien, Maria Llena de Gracia. My taste is a little dramatic. LOL
Just saw Alice in Wonderland. I have to see it again in 3D.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things was flying over Hurricane Katrina. It was like flying over a giant white flying saucer. Picture a giant white cotton candy floating in the sky.
Another incredible thing I saw was watching the Space Shuttle take off at sunrise while I was flying, WOW!
Another incredible view was standing in San Sebastian, Spain on a hill between 2 bays. I wish I had those pics online.
