A primordial engine, always stunning, always humbling, nature transforms the land, shapes the course of rivers, births entire mountains, and creates new life. Both this Vezo fisherwoman and I stood captivated by the steely gray clouds of an approaching storm that rumbled over the coastline with menacing thunder." -Cristina Mittermeier Cristina Mittermeier Biography: Cristina Goettsch Mittermeier was born in Mexico City in 1966 and grew up in nearby Cuernavaca, in the sunny state of Morelos.
