Hello my name is Maricarmen Arizaga tho prefer  being called Mari for short.I live like 7 min away from here so technically I live in San Jose. I've never gone out of the country tho maybe going to travel to London.I have some experiences with growing seeds and plants when i lived in my own house we use to grow our food most of it tho were fruits, we never grew flowers.When i think of gardening i think of my mom she loved gardening  even when we moved to an apartment she would still grow small flowers because she wanted the  house to look nice. Tho I haven't seen my mom that often  any more, each time i go visit she'll always be watering her plants or taking care of them.
