2018 / Phnom Pehn (Cambodia)- streetchildren

In July 2018, Catherine Habasque and Horacio Espinosa traveled to Phnom Penh, main city of Cambodia to work with the street children of Friends International.

We have been told that, after this time spent with us, some of the kids and teenagers we worked with want to go on dancing… then we succeeded already… by giving them a tool for life, an escape and comfort on the hard days, the base of a discipline and the respect of oneself and the other…

And the work does not stop with our departure from Cambodia. A Salsa teacher living in Phnom Penh accepted to go on teaching some of our kids for free… Salsa is a success worldwide. A European in Phnom Penh pays about 8 Dollars for an hour group class. 8 dollars is for many people here the salary of a day… If our kids there know how to use the opportunity, it will give them the possibility to earn the money they need to get independent and out of the heavy situation they are in…

… and we will follow their next steps with curiosity and tenderness
