Difficulties faced as a student: "For me the difficulty comes sometimes when I have to buy something for my studies, but can't on the day that I need it. That's one of the difficulties, because they are many for poor students in the public schools."

For Fun

Favorite movies: action films

In my free time... "What I do is simple: I play soccer in the afternoons, do my homework, watch a bit of TV, read the books that I have, talk with my mom, my dad and my siblings... I also like to cook and help in the cleaning of the house."

Personal interests: "My personal interests are to graduate from high school and then, if I am lucky, begin my university career, since I too want to help my community."

Anything else? "I hope that through this website we will be able to obtain more funds for students on the waiting list."
