Studied Anthro in school, always been interested in travel and taking a dip into the unknown sauce - both figuratively and literally :)
Lot's of time spent in Latin America and missing it. NYC is a great place for me because I get to speak Spanish all the time and enjoy Latin culture without the perils of living as a wandering gringo.
I like this site because I get to meet people I would not normally meet otherwise. NYC tends to bring people together based on shared interests and goals. For me, I just get a good feeling from some people, no matter where our ambitions lie.
