Red face Severe Turbulence

I have heard several times that when flying over the andine region, aircraft encounter many times really severe turbulence. I have even heard a story of a f/a on a flt to SCL where she told us that although they were seated and straped in their harnesses they thougt they would fall off their seats.

My question: Do you know if there is any other region where there is a high possiblity of encountering severe turbulence?
Once I heard that when crossing the Equator.
I ask you that becasue I would like to fly again as a f/a, this time for LH, and as I know that there you have to choose an area to fly, if I know of one with many turbulences I would choose any other area in order to avoid them as they really scare me.
