Nicole Mitidieri-Rivera

¡Hola! I’m Nicole Mitidieri-Rivera, born in Iquitos, Peru, in the heart of lowland Amazonia near the borders with Colombia and Brazil. Growing up surrounded by diverse cultures shaped my appreciation for how they broaden our understanding of the world. As a botanist, I’ve explored remote regions of Peru and visited countries across the Americas and Europe. My passion for cultural exchange led me to learn English, French, Italian, and Portuguese, and I look forward to continuing to practice them with others. These experiences have deepened my empathy and strengthened my belief in the value of connection. As a REACH ambassador, I’m excited to help build bridges across cultures.
