In the life of the sea there are no borders. Hanna Frida and Héctor are my children and are always going to be together to help each other. I hope that in their lifetimes they will be able to live without borders, clear like the water and free, floating without suffering and struggles. The dolphin is my husband because he is very peaceful. I am the octopus; cutting hair, cooking, sewing, cleaning, working and running. I am ready to be free and relaxed!
En la vida marina no hay fronteras. Hanna Frida y Héctor son mis hijos y siempre van a estar juntos. Siempre estarán juntos para ayudarse. Espero que durante su vida ellos puedan vivir sin la frontera. Claro como el agua y libre, flotando sin sufrimientos y sin problemas. El delfín es mi esposo porque es muy pacífico. Yo soy el pulpo; cortando cabello, cocinando, cosiendo, limpiando, trabajando y corriendo. ¡Estoy lista para estar libre y relajada!
