Daniel, 2013

Daniel, 2013

Daniel, a father of two, works as a security guard in the city, Managua. Winning the bike means daily transportation to his work place, and thus, more time with his family. Before winning the bike, Daniel could only afford to ride a bus to work once every two weeks. So he would live on the streets or with a friend in Managua and visit his family twice a month.
