Daniela, Costa Rican Surrogate Mother in San Jose, Costa Rica

Why I want to be a surrogate mother:

To help someone else. I don't want to be a mom myself but I know there are many out there who wish to be parents and can't. Before I get my operation, I would like to help someone make their dreams of being parent come true.

Description of myself:

I'm a happy person, satisfied with what life has given me. I used to be an elementary school teacher and have just recently moved to high school. I do not want any kids of my own (my students are enough for me) and have been sure about it for over 10 years now. I planned on getting surgery but decided I could give someone a hand before I do. I only plan on being a surrogate once. I'm healthy. I don't smoke nor do drugs. I drink socially when I go out, which is rarely because I am usually at home doing stuff for work or just reading. I'm not religious and love animals. Anything else you might want to know, feel free to ask. :)

My letter to intended parents:

My country is very religious, so much to the point that many couples are not able to get in vitro because it is considered a crime. I do not want kids of my own but that does not mean that other people should be denied the right. I believe that everything should be experienced at least once. By being a teacher, I get to be a mom (although many would argue that it is not the same, I am happy with what I get from my kids at school), but I never got to be pregnant. I know it's a strange reason, but life is all about experiences. I am willing to be a surrogate through the gestational process.
