Santa Bárbara de Heredia

My primary interests on Wikipedia include creating and editing articles about Latin American history and politics, specifically Costa Rica. I am also interested in other areas of history, as well. I also make minor edits while I'm reading Wikipedia for fun. I've got a website with my comic books here: Choosy Beggar Books.
