Eager to continue learning, Raquel embraces life with a smile.
For Raquel, travelling is an important experience that allows her constant learning. In 2013, while working in Brazil, Raquel had the chance to visit Amazonia with her oldest child. This was one of the most different and enriching experiences she has ever had, only topped by motherhood. The love of travelling and learning new things is something she wants to pass on to her children."I always loved big challenges"
