This presentation explains my thoughts, reflections, and feelings about writing interpretive autoethnographic texts in a foreign language. This includes my discovery of myself as a northern Chilean woman who grew up and survived by resisting colonized daily realities. I resisted the oppression and the atrocities that occurred during the Pinochet regime from 1973 through 1990.
