Lleg贸 el d铆a de salir de Argentina. Y escogiendo las fotos para compartir con ustedes, puedo ver en retrospectiva que la felicidad en mi rostro era algo que no se puede actuar, era totalmente genuina y hab铆a una raz贸n para esto.
Si no estaban enterados, viaj茅 a Buenos Aires por una beca que consegu铆 para participar en un Hackathon en el marco de la Devconnect, una convenci贸n Web3 que se hace cada dos a帽os. Yo pas茅 todo el 2025 manifestando y luchando este viaje. Dos semanas antes, despu茅s de mes y medio participando en un bootcamp espectacular de la mano de una comunidad de mujeres llamado Buen D铆a Builders, lo logr茅.
Mi plan principal era llegar un par de d铆as antes de mi chek in para disfrutar de los side events, y quedarme dos semanas despu茅s con mi mejor amiga, 
El domingo 23 de noviembre de 2025, luego de varios meses de una fuerte presencia de la flota de los Estados Unidos en aguas caribe帽as, anuncian el cierre del espacio a茅reo venezolano. Entre dimos y diretes, ansiedad y una semana de espera, me lleg贸 el tenido correo. Mi vuelo de vuelta a Venezuela, programado para el 8 de diciembre, se hab铆a cancelado. Por fortuna, luego de ponerme en contacto con la Aerol铆nea GOL, tuve el mi cuenta, el costo total del vuelo de regreso.
Despu茅s de pensarlo mucho, y cansada de toda la situaci贸n que siempre envuelve a mi pa铆s. Luego de sacar cuentas con respecto a lo que me costar铆a volver, y viendo que no me alcanzaba para regresar por la frontera, decid铆 quedarme en Argentina. Estaba bien, qued谩ndome en casa de mi amiga ayudando con todo lo que pod铆a y buscando empleo, no me gue f谩cil. Y bueno, no estaba destinada a quedarme en esa m谩gica ciudad. Con mis tres trapitos en mi maleta, decid铆 emprender un nuevo camino.
En un vuelo cargado de angustias, una escala de 8 horas en el aeropuerto de Sao Paulo, dos d铆as de viaje. Un segundo avi贸n con comida gluten free muy deliciosa, en el que me dieron cobija y almohada, llegu茅 a mi destino. Cansada, desorientada, pero muy feliz. 驴Ya adivinaron a d贸nde llegu茅?

The day came to leave Argentina. As I was choosing the photos to share with you, I could see in retrospect that the happiness on my face was something that couldn鈥檛 be faked鈥攊t was completely genuine, and there was a reason for that.If you didn鈥檛 know, I traveled to Buenos Aires thanks to a scholarship I received to participate in a Hackathon during Devconnect, a Web3 convention that takes place every two years. I spent all of 2025 manifesting and fighting for this trip. Then, just two weeks before it happened, after a month and a half participating in an incredible bootcamp led by a women鈥檚 community called Buen D铆a Builders, I finally made it.
My original plan was to arrive a few days before check-in to enjoy the side events and then stay for two weeks afterward with my best friend,
On November 23, 2025, after several months of a strong U.S. fleet presence in Caribbean waters, the closure of Venezuelan airspace was announced. Amid uncertainty, anxiety, and a week of waiting, I received the dreaded email. My return flight to Venezuela, scheduled for December 8, had been canceled. Fortunately, after contacting GOL Airlines, I was refunded the full cost of my return ticket.
After thinking about it for a long time, and exhausted by the situation that always seems to surround my country, I started doing the math on what it would cost to go back. Realizing I couldn鈥檛 even afford to return through the border, I decided to stay in Argentina. I was doing okay, staying at my friend鈥檚 house, helping however I could, and looking for a job. It wasn鈥檛 easy. But, as it turned out, I wasn鈥檛 destined to remain in that magical city. With my few belongings packed into a suitcase, I decided to begin a new path.
On a flight filled with anxiety, followed by an eight-hour layover at S茫o Paulo Airport and two days of travel, I boarded a second plane where they served delicious gluten-free meals and even gave me a blanket and pillow. Finally, I arrived at my destination. Tired, disoriented, but incredibly happy.
Have you guessed where I ended up?
