    An elderly resident of Habana Veija. A man of dignity and a rich history. Though his home shows definite signs of wear and tear, he talks with pride and fondness of how it came to be his. by: chasethelight Views[405] For this gentleman, obviously ill and in pain, there was a sense of acceptance and a matter of fact approach to his situation. Almost as if to say, This matriarch of a multigenerational family was generous enough to share her home and details of her daily life. Due to a caved in ceiling, the one habitable room in her home houses a makeshift kitchen, six adults and one infant. A proud woman, she was less concerned with what she didn’t have and more with what she did have. by: chasethelight Views[1163] A young boy carries a costly loaf of bread home from the market. by: chasethelight Views[493] Through the doorway of a Habana-Veija home I glimpsed a young boy holding his marbles in his hands while “nonchalantly” climbing a dilapidated and reinforced spiral staircase. A calm accepting attitude of the environment common to the residents of Habana-Veija. by: chasethelight Views[597]
