Old Lady in a Barrio

            An aged woman in the Barrio Los Magallanes de Catia, Caracas. She had never gone to school when she was young and after her 70 years of age has learnt writing and reading under Bolivarian Government's literacy program, which she is proud of. Far in the left of the picture appears a fragment of the buildings of Caracas, the capital city of Venezuela. She has to transfer twice collective jeeps to get to the foot of the hill and then get on a subway to access the Down Town. The people who live on the hill top gets up at four o'clock to arrive on time to their work places.
＊A "barrio" in Caribbean Spanish means urban marginal community.
