Half Puerto Rican, half Dutch, born in the capital of Honduras and having moved across the Atlantic several times, Loretta has not been able to settle in any of those places yet. After completing a degree in Journalism and Psychology in The Netherlands she soon made her first television report about the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Having found her true passion for journalism, and leaving her psychology ambitions behind, she decided to leave for South America. Loretta is now interning at an English language newspaper in Santiago, Chile where she is learning about the country’s tumultuous history and how it affects Chile today. Meanwhile Loretta is making sure to enjoy the country’s beautiful nature.
