Tours by Ketty
Ketty Sánchez
Born in France, my family returned to Spain when I was 5 years old, where I grew up. I went to university in Puerto Rico where I studied Spanish and History. After finishing university, I went to live in the United States, in Wisconsin and Minnesota. After 7 years there, I returned to Spain where I live with my 4 children. I have been teaching English and Spanish as a second language since 1992. I have also worked as a tour guide on several occasions. I love traveling, cooking, crafts, miniatures, and meeting people from different cultures. I am very outgoing and love helping people. I speak Spanish, English, and can get by in French.
