About Raul Vega

Personal Background:

I grew up in Meriden and I still live here. There are so many reasons I love Meriden and have chosen to stay here. My favorite thing is all the amazing and diverse food options. I’m a foodie so an area where I can get great Indian food and great Japanese food is exactly what I want, and I’ve found that in Meriden.

What is your favorite thing to do in your downtime?

I have a few different hobbies I really enjoy during my free time. I like to work on my car and play video games the most, but I also enjoy managing my investment properties or traveling. I’ve traveled to Jamaica a few times, its one of my favorite places. Anywhere with a nice beach gets my approval, but Jamaica was my all-time favorite.

Are there any talents you wished you had or talents you have and would like to share?

I’m the type of person where whenever I want to do something I go out and I work at it until I’ve accomplished it. My next challenge is a backflip. I’m no gymnast but I’ll get it eventually.

Where or what is your happy place?

My happy place is Jamaica! I love anywhere warm. Send me to the beach and I’m happy. Especially if I get to be with my family and share that time with them. My whole extended family took a trip to Jamaica for a wedding, and it was one of the most memorable trips of my life. Getting to experience a place like that with my whole family was incredible.

Do you have a favorite childhood memory?

One of my favorite childhood memories is working on cars with my dad. He taught me everything there is to know about cars, which I believe is a useful skill. I still like to work on cars today using the skills my dad taught me.

What would someone be surprised to learn about you?

Something people would be surprised to know about me is I bought my first investment property at 21!
