General
FIRST ROAD BIKE
She asked her father for a road bike instead of a party for her 15th birthday. He said no, so she decided to take matters in her own hands and talk to some professional riders. "One day I chased [Paraguayan cyclists] Gustavo Mino and Eladio Chavez for like two kilometres until I reached them. I told them my dream was to be like them. What I didn't know was that they were looking for girls for their team. Two weeks later they lent me my first road bike." (versus.com.py, 02 Feb 2020)

FAR FROM HOME
She turned professional in 2019, and in 2020 she began riding for Massi-Tactic Women Team, which is based in Girona, Spain. "It can be lonely because cycling is an individual sport. The travelling takes me away from my family. I was always very independent but missing birthdays, mother's days or knowing my mother is counting the months to see me again sometimes makes me feel selfish and it's even harder when things don't go well. Seeing mothers hug their daughters before races in Belgium or France has made me cry more than once, wishing my mother was with me." (infonegocios.com.py, 13 Mar 2020)
