The ladies of Opción Múltiple: Olga, the little girl with a big secret
OLGA: Truly young at heart, she has a flair for the dramatic that is certain to make an impression. A fashionista from a young age, she also enjoys fine foods and watching movies.

Even though it may seem she is not so stable, it is impossible to forget she continues to learn from the world (and personalities) around her. Sign: Virgo Favorite movie: Must Love Dogs OLGA: Con un corazón verdaderamente joven, su...
