[edit] Hello World

Well, well, well. Since I first registered at Wikipedia last year, I thought it was about time to start my userpage here. So, Hello Wikipedia.

[edit] My Interests

I speak and write Spanish fluently; I enjoy studying many languages including German and a wee bit of French; Linguistics is one of my passions; I do some C++ programming in my spare time; Photography is one way I relax.

[edit] Galleries

I'm going to start a gallery of the photos I've added to Wikipedia. A work in process. I'm also very interested in architecture and old European structures. Here's my compendium of Old World Architecture and Natural wonders.

Here's my Virtual tour of Oregon.
