Santander, Colombia

Right now we are living in a provisional home provided by the government. The place where we live does not have access roads; there are community laundry sinks, community bathrooms and community recreational spaces. The supply of water and electricity is provisional.

I study every Sunday from 7 -1 p.m. Since I am validating, I can finish one grade in a 6 month period. This means I will finish 9th grade in June a...
