I was raised in the small town of Hidalgo, Texas, just on the side of the Mexican Border. Living there made me grow up thinking that possibilities were limited and there was not much offered to us.

They prefer talking to their neighbor than sitting in the living room and watching TV. It also reminds me about a small town near Canada that I have visited three month ago. There is a lovely coffee shop in that town. The interesting thing was when I went to that shop, I saw a lot of people sitting there and chatting with their friends. Some parents took their kids there to play with another. You can rarely see that picture in a big city.…

Life is tough living in the slums, but I 'm used to it now so it 's not as hard as it was when we first moved here.
