About Me

Im Leticia, born and raised in Asuncion Paraguay, the heart of Southamerica.
I speak fluent spanish, english and portuguese. I also speak some french and guaraní, which is a native language spoken in my country.
Im a public translator.
Im passionate about literature, languages and traveling.

I love to learn from everyone I meet, everywhere I go.

Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance, but in the end its really worth it because the more you travel, the more you end up learning not only about the world, but about yourself.

Me llamo Leti y soy de Paraguay, el corazón de Sudamérica.
Hablo español, ingles y portugués. Además un poco de francés y guaraní, que es un una lengua nativa que se habla en mi país. Soy traductora pública, pero no me dedico a eso.
Me apasiona la literatura, idiomas y culturas distintas a la mía. Me encanta aprender de las personas que voy conociendo en el camino e intercambiar historias.
"La suerte de coincidir y la magia de conectar" ❤️🌎 priceless!
