How would you describe yourself?
I am a down to earth, fun loving, outgoing, Afro Latina born and bred in Brooklyn, New York.
But I BEG you, if all you want is a hook up, please bypass my profile. Trust me when I say this, there are plenty of women who are looking for just that. I'm just not one of them but I wish you the best. If you should change your mind and I am still available, by all means, HIT ME UP! lol
That being said, I am passionate about life, friends, family, acting, films, art, books, teaching, listening to Latin Music. I love traveling! I've lived in Spain, Peru, Dominican Republic & Puerto Rico. I've also been to Anguilla, St. Martin, Canada & Morocco.
I volunteer with an organization that allows me to be a kid again while helping kids. We go into hospitals and entertain children who have terminal and/or long term diseases. We try to get their minds off of their problems. Getting a smile from a kid hooked up to a machine is priceless.
As for what I'm good at, BS'ing lol. All in good fun though. In HS, I'd crank call my friends and try and sell them the New York Times. Lol
English is my Second Language. I speak Spanish fluently. And if push comes to shove, I can speak flawless Italian and American Sign Language after a glass or two of wine. lol
Favorite Books: Yes, I read a lot, for pure enjoyment of course.
1. The Alchemist: This doesn't even need an intro. If you don't have this book run out and buy it now
2. Hit List by Laurell K. Hamilton: Who am I kidding? I've read every book in both of her series. Some I've reread so much they are falling off of their hinges. And yes it's about Vampires and such but it's also smart, and sexy with politics as a backdrop.
3. Dark Night by Suzanne Brockmann: I love all her Navy Seal Trouble Shooters Series
4. The Celestine Prophesy by James Redfield: It really made me take a hard look at my spirituality
5. Tourist Season by Carl Hiaasen. Basically anything he writes. The guy is a genius when it comes to black, twisted and extremely addictive humor
6. The Gift by Hafiz: It's my meditation without the meditation.

Things I can't live without:
1. Orange Juice. Don't judge! Its the best thing in the morning!
2. Family & friends
3. Vanilla coffee and Vanilla Creamer... OK, so I mix my vanilla coffee with some of my Café Bustelo cause I like my coffee strong. And I Bustelo is what I grew up drinking. Typical Caribbean household.
4. Audible. It has become my saving grace
5. My dog Bella. I adopted her 10 years ago. Best thing that could have happened to me.
I am looking for
I'm looking for integrity, kindness and generosity of spirit. Someone who has good morals. Who sees the value in a partner and not just someone to warm their beds. I need someone who can see the ironies of life and be able to laugh at himself from time to time. Please indulge in your inner goofy. Mind you, I am selfish also. I want a Gourmet Chef too. Lol. But seriously, knowing how to cook is a plus :-)
