ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This photo is one of a series I did in 2015.
These were shot in an very poor and small village in Guinea-Bissau.
As photographer and an humanitarian volunteer, I tried to capture the immense number of feelings that were happening at the moment not only by the children but also by us, portuguese volunteers during our visit to deliver books and school supplies.
because they want to learn, some of these children have to walk more than 30Km each day to go to school...
