Description

This is Sandi from El Pomo, a small town in rural Valle del Cauca, Colombia. She goes to school with her sisters because her mon works all day in the fields and can not babysit her. The trek from her house to El Pomo school is about 18 miles one way. When I asked her if she gets tired she said she wouldn't if her sisters slow down a bit. She was not in a good mood because " El Marron " ( Brownie ) her sister's dog ate one of her dolls. C & C always appreciated. Andres

Thanks guys! Actually it was a typo, it is 1.8 miles which is about 6 kilometers round trip. I walked and I was tired! It is mostly uphill or I am getting old.

Children can be so beautiful...and we all have been children. I'm browsing through your gallery (I found elephant rock in Coppens' favourites) and I am very impressed with the emotion your works evokes. Digging deeper in the past...
