Introduction	I am a gal who just came out of seven interesting years in an American University making her transition to New York City. I love my friends and all the people bringing contributions to my life. I work, laugh live and think a lot. Right now I am just in the process of re-defining my life, knowing already the things I am not willing to compromise, and getting ready to sacrifice the rest if needed. In fact, I am one of those people who break some rules if they imply compromising who I am. Sometimes I can pay a high price for this, but I guess that's the nature of life. I am a person who lives in three cultures at the same time and has developed selves to live in these cultures accordingly. This is not about split personalities more than it is about adapting to live in my surroundings. It has been fun, but it has had stressful moments, because many of my experiences are out of the "norm." I also love to write, explore and take a lot of pictures
