About Valeria Montero
Hola! I'm Valeria, but everyone calls me Vale. I'm 18 and I was born and raised in beautiful Costa Rica - yes, the place with perfect beaches and rainforests everywhere! I'm currently studying Tourism and Hospitality at UCR because I want to share the magic of my country with the world. When I'm not in class, you'll find me at the beach surfing, playing volleyball with friends, or exploring some hidden waterfall I found on Instagram. I also make content for social media showcasing the pura vida lifestyle - it's my side hustle and honestly so much fun! I grew up in a warm, close family that taught me to embrace life fully and never miss an opportunity for adventure. My curly hair has a mind of its own (especially with this tropical humidity!), but I've learned to love it - it's part of who I am. I'm spontaneous, a little wild, and I believe the best memories come from unexpected moments. Life's too short to play it safe, right?
