Don’t complain: endure and overcome. Remember Michelle who walks for hours to get to school
As part of our documentary project in Broadcast Journalism, we followed Michelle: the eldest daughter of Mirasol, on her way to school. She walked for hours, climbed mountains, and crossed a small river to get to school each day.
“Don’t you get tired doing this every day?”
“No.”
“Have you ever fallen while trying to climb this part of the mountain?”
“Yes, I have fallen from it at one time. My uniform was all covered with mud.”
“What did you do after that?”
“I went back to our house and changed, and then I started walking to school again.”
