HIII!! (No. 6)

Hi everyone!! My name is Paulina and I’m currently a junior at Berkeley High School! This will be my very first time traveling to the Caribbean so I am very excited to experience a new culture and to meet all of you ? A bit of background info about me, I LOVE concerts. I spend all of my free time waiting in line to be as close as possible to artists. I also do martial arts, I have been doing Taekwondo for almost 4 years now and will be getting my black belt in a couple of months! I work at the local food pantry at my school weekly as well as working at Alameda County Office of Education serving on their Youth Advisory Board. English is my second language, I grew up only with my mom, who immigrated from Russia and russian was the primary language in my household. I have been traveling for as long as I can remember and after the DR I’ll be going to Russia with my family! As of right now, I’m studying for finals ? but once that’s over I plan to get my drivers license and hang out with my friends as much as I can! Super excited to meet you all!

Hi Paulina – my daughter, Vannesa, and I love going to concerts too- especially K-POP!!! What type of concerts do you like? Hopefully you’ve met my daughter by now. Looks like you all are having a great time. T
