Diego is 22 years old and lives in Chuinimajuyup, one of the poorest villages in the Boca Costa region.  Every day of the week Diego walks 2.5 hours down the mountain to school and 3.5 hours back up after classes.  He is one of the few people in his village to study past elementary school.  His dream is to help the people in his village learn Spanish, in addition to K´iche´, so that they can participate in the formal markets of the country.  He would also like to eliminate illiteracy in his village which reaches up to 80% of the community. Diego is now studying Social Sciences at the University Galileo.
