In this article I want to show the forms and narrative topos that support the biographical narrative of Ecuadorian migrant women which I have collected the life histories. The life of witnesses seems to be characterized by the rebellion that already appears in adolescence and that once adult, will lead the women to escape his fate emigrating. The narrative structure is similar to the formation of novel whose protagonist is the migrant / heroine who after many difficulties and with God's help manages to triumph and achieve their goals.
