Catalina was a Basque woman daughter and syster of soldiers from the city of San Sebastian. She was left to become a nun but abandoned the monastery at the age of fifteen years and started a long travel, always through contacts with other Basques, reaching America's colonies and entering as soldier under several captains, including her own brother, who she murdered along with a lot more of people.

Her autobiography can be found actually in digital library.[2] archive copy at the Wayback Machine
