Three Fun Facts About Me

  1. My wife is from Colombia, and we met while we were both studying in Japan
  2. My wife convinced me to walk with the Camino de Santiago with her. I really resisted at first, but ended up loving it.
  3. As a result of our multicultural background, my family spends a lot of time traveling abroad.
