Living in Nueva Vida
Thursday Mar 13, 2008
This trip to Nicaragua found me taking a good number of portraits of people I met. I think it was my best photographic trip to date! More pictures to come. This boy is part of the feeding center program in Nueva Vida. A refugee camp for people displaced from Hurricane Mitch, back in 1999. This is the feeding center that my friends and I helped raise money to open back in 2005, when we walked across Nicaragua. Then it was feeding 90 kids, five days a week. Now they are feeding over 300 kids, five days a week. It was really cool to how it is all working.
Hope you are doing well. Life is crazy here, but going well.
I am in the midst of opening a coffee shop here in Charlottesville, so that is beginning to take up a lot of my time!
