I was born in the native community of Puerto Consuelo, but I currently live in the native community of San Salvador. The women of my tribe are dedicated to making handicrafts with embroidered fabrics and also with ancestral seeds. We teach the girls of my tribe to embroider from a very young age. It is a hobby for many girls, and for boys it is fishing. My ancestors were shamans, dedicated to ancestral medicine. Many of our older women were doctors, and thanks to them, we grew up healthy and safe. As a child, I suffered from an illness that was said to be incurable in the community, but thanks to our plants, I am now healthy and safe. I am very happy and grateful because I can teach and share many of our customs with more people.
