The protagonist of this story lives in El Cedrito, a remote shantytown located in the vicinity of Mampote, in the state of Miranda. As a consequence of deficiencies in public transportation, this 8-year old boy has to ramble tortuously through many stops just to go to school. He is now on vacation, so he gets to spend his afternoons playing soccer.
I was born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela, my favorite classroom. As a journalist, I am constantly learning and tugging at people’s heartstrings with words. I currently cover politics for El Pitazo.
