The people of Guatemala are FASCINATING 🇬🇹

The people of Guatemala have showed me two things - the value and importance of community over solitude and the value of hard work. My travel in Guatemala was filled with good food, good people, and good causes.

    This is actually normal for kids we learn how to work at 6-10 depending on where were from and by working we developed mature skills and try our best in what we want this is important to us because we love our culture and express it in a lot of ways such at working hard making clothing building and cooking!! Plz don't feel offended I am Guatemalan and I love what we do at the age of 5 I learned how to take care of myself and would be responsible for my 2 younger siblings💙💙💙💙💙..

I used to babysit for her for free because she worked in a warehouse from sun up to sun down. Her work ethic was unmatched by so many people I know. She never complained like I do about so much. That little boy would have had all of my coins just to get him off the street early for one day.
