Ronold, this is a beautiful insect! This is a female Cricket nymph. I don't know the species but I am certain it is a Cricket.
One easy way to tell Crickets (and Katydids) from Grasshoppers is to look at the antennae. Grasshoppers have shorter, somewhat thick antennae, while Crickets (and Katydids) have long, thread-like antennae.
The white markings on the antennae are very interesting! I hope this information helps.
