Patricia's story
My name is Patricia, and I am 36 years old. I live in Villalba, P.R, a beautiful town full of colorful mountains. I am very passionate about art, travel, and animals. Despite my passion for art, I never got to study anything related to that. I graduated in Social Work, but I never practiced that profession.
After I graduated, I worked at a department store for eight years, but because the time I had to travel and do the things I loved the most was very limited, I decided to start my own business. I had the idea to combine two of my passions, art and travel, to create my business which is called Tiestos Viajeros (Traveling Pots). My business is focused on creating unique pots for your plants that are made of clay and cement.
