About your host

I am Chilean but I fell in love with Mancora in 2009 and moved here.. Since I was a little girl, I felt connections with nature, especially plants. When I was a scout, I loved making potions with plants. As an adult on a path of self-discovery, I learned to make smudge bundles and found the smoke helpful for meditation. I have studied phytotherapy and herbalism, and been trained in the art of smudging by a matriarch of Mapuche culture. And I’ve entered the world of cocoa, studying its properties. All of this has served me well and made me eager to share it with visitors.
