”This is my family but my father took the photo so he’s not in it. He works for government security but also helps my mother and older brother on our farm. I help to look after my little sisters.”
”Sometimes we need to travel somewhere far away and so we ride our horse; or we put food to take to market on his back.”
”My sisters are visiting this alter in Hato-Builico. I go there to pray every afternoon after school.”
“Two years ago my mother’s father fell down and now he can’t move his body. He did not want to go to the doctor. He moved in with us so we could look after him. Now he eats just corn and potatoes.”
”If important people visit Hato-Builco my father protects them from danger. He always tells us to go to school, not fight with other people and to focus on study.”
“This photo is taken on the top of Mount Ramelau. I climb there with friends every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. In the future I hope I can go to university. I want to be a teacher… or maybe I will be a photographer!”
