She went out of the village because she thought that it wasn’t a good life. So, when she was 16, she moved to France. There she studied French and worked as a babysitter of an American’ child. Then she moved to Madrid, she studied the hairdresser trade but she worked for forty years in her own dry cleaner.
Nowadays, she is retired. So, she travels a lot and takes care of her grandchildren.
