Hi there! I am Valeria, nice to meet you :)
I am majoring in Computer Security and Cryptography. Here are some of my interests: foreign languages, reading (I'm a big fan of detective and mystery stories and mythology), travelling, book illustration, historical mysteries, tribes, ancient treasures, pin-up (my favorite artists are Gil Elvgren and Edward Runci). I am obsessed with 2 things: Latin America and the night sky.

If you enjoy reading too, let's meet up on Goodreads! https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/19739165-valerie
