The girl making a dangerous journey to get an education

Description

Tulcán (Ecuador), Apr 17 (EFE).- (Camera: Xavier Montalvo) Every morning, Valentina Arellano has a small breakfast and leaves home at 6:00 am, accompanied by her mother, to cross one of the "trails" on the Carchi river, the natural border between Ecuador and Colombia.She is nine years old and has Colombian nationality, but lives on the Ecuadorian side of the border, in a humble house located next to an old neoclassical-style headquarters of the Customs Police, now in disuse.The pandemic has kept the binational border closed for more than a year, which has not prevented the minor from being brave enough to cross the gorge that separates the two countries and accomplish her dream of having an education.FOOTAGE OF VALENTINA CROSSING.
