I was born in Bocas del Toro, Panama. I have half Italian blood from my mother and half Argentine blood from my father. Since 2017 I moved to Costa Rica, living a dream life in Avellanas beach, near Tamarindo in the province of Guanacaste. I'm in 12 grade in International School. I have a mixture of Caribbean flavor from Bocas del Toro,.... Pura Vida vibe from Costa Rica .. and I love Italian food and Argentinian soccer...
