RE: Motorcycle Travel Series by @velimir 'The Living Quarters' (Part #202)
That's really sad velimir :(
knowing that in our "advanced" world, in a country where you wouldn't expect things like that to happen - it still does.
In Israel you can see homeless people living in the street, but as far as I know it's because they choose to - the government supply everyone in need a roof above his head, even if it's a communal roof with others. I think they get more charity money this way but who know, maybe they are just used to it - anyway it is a heartbreaking scene - old people wrapped in stinking blankets and a nylon to cover them from the rain.
I do hope that the people living at this place have good reasons to do so and that they are as happy as they can in this situation :(
How comes you did not meet any of them yet? a little strange they didn't show up - are they hiding?
edit - this tag is brilliant for the post "ruins".
hehehe follow on ;)
I've seen situations where the government-provided aid is much worse than what homeless people can find on the streets. It's an extremely sad scene in Venezuela to see people eating from the garbage everywhere, even though our government claims to be socialist. I'll try not to get into politics. The point is, maybe they live better that way. If they didn't, I don't think they would choose to do what they do.
I am sad to hear that 🙁
I know for a fact that the situation of my country isn't like yours- whoever needs the help will get it - it might not be fancy but it's better than the streets. But I do know that venezuela is in a tough situation. My heart is with you.
Thank you, dear, for your support. Kind people like you make the world spin... metaphorically.
