Technically a reptile, Paulo's fascination and Intrigue with snakes just continues to grow. He reads his book on snakes every night and still finds new ways of being interested in them. He is fascinated by their patterns and fangs! He can give a description about so many different types of snakes!
Mountain biking and camping. We asked him to pick a favorite and he said these are both equally his favorite!
