Get to know our history
Trustlates is a project that was born in San Francisco, when I was surviving with my poor English navigating in the American system. After six years of living there and one year in the SouthAsia, I developed linguistic strategies for people who want to communicate in Spanish. Based on my Journalism background and teaching skills my clients get their goals in the best, fastest, and easiest way. TRUST me, and don’t TRANSLATE, use strategy.
The struggle was real
Let's go back in time! 🕰️
Journalistic dream
Journalistic
I was born in Valencia, Spain. I was a curious child and it’s been my dream to be able to tell the world about everything that was happening around. Naturally, I studied Communications as my major and I received a degree in journalism. I spent 13 years working at the second largest media group, Vocento, writing for Las Provincias newspaper. During that time I wrote over 300 articles each year and published numerous exclusive front page news.
TV anchorwoman
I spent over 13 years updating everyone on what was happening in my hometown, Valencia. The last three years, I was on a digital channel offering the best news. I enjoyed the adrenaline telling news in real time and knowing relevant people in the politician, business and fashion world.

Autor Two Spanish books
Taking from my Journalism background, I was able to discover the best and easiest ways to teach Spanish. This non-stop research eventually became a unique Spanish book made with idiomatic expressions, “Nacida para Comerme el mundo”. It’s a fun and easy-to-read book with humorous illustrations showing the culture-shocked a woman experienced living in San Francisco. Three years later I wrote my second book after my trip to Asia, “Backpacking 30 days in Gramatica”, where I share all the strategies to speak Spanish fast and easily. I continued my studies and I became certified as a foreign language Spanish instructor by the Instituto Cervantes.
Out of my Comfort Zone
Out of my Comfort Zone
Traveler in South Asia
After six years working very hard learning about the San Francisco life and making thousands of cultural mistakes, I decided to leave the US and I went to explore the unknown South Asia I had always dreamed of knowing. I lived for about a year in Asia traveling through Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Japan, and New Zealand. I learned how important is to know the culture in order to connect with everyone. I share my life experiences through my Youtube channel.
Culture Research
I fell in love with the Buddhist philosophy living with monks and teaching them English and learning from them to listen to my heart. I learned meditation techniques in ancient temples. Observing life and discovering what the important things in life for me are. It has nothing to do with money or power, it’s about compassion and respect. I wrote all these experiences and feelings in my blog to give others a different perspective than what the media or public speakers share with them.
After my experience in Asia, I met the man of my life and I went to his country the Gambia to start my own project helping kids. smilingkidsgambia.com
