    I was born in 1984 in the Southern Area of Buenos Aires. I was told that the moment I was arriving home, there was a heavy storm a block away from my house, but it was sunny when we arrived home.

    I was the first of 4 long haired girls. My first sister was born a year after me. People used to find it difficult to tell who was each one. Nowadays, we don't look that similar. But they still can't tell who we are when we speak on the phone!

    Thanks to a scholarship I was given because of my good marks at school, I started to study English at a language School at the age of 10. I really loved attending the lessons.

    After finishing secondary school I took a gap year in which I took up English lessons again (I had left when I started secondary school because we couldn't afford both fees). One year later, I started to study to be a teacher. I really enjoyed learning as much as delivering the lessons.

    After I had finished my translation course, which I started in 2009, I applied for a job and, unexpectedly, I was chosen for the position of Seasonal Youth Counselour. This was an amazing experience round the Mediterranean Sea.

    At university I met a girl from Río Grande, Tierra del Fuego. In March 2016 she contacted me to tell me that her mother was hiring teachers and she had thought of me. I contacted her mother and, again, I started my journey to a different place, and a new experience.
