Granpa Works in the Fields - Mi agüelo trabaja en el campo
Tatiana Calixto
2011
Zarwatun and his grandpa, Luis Villafañe, communicate in the Arhuaco language, Ikan.
But then, there was something I was fully able to understand.
One afternoon, after returning from school, I was flipping through Zarwa’s notebook and saw a drawing of a man working in his orchard. The image read “Mi agüelo trabaja en el campo.”
I never corrected his spelling.
The image was flawless.
