On the Road to Nuevo Celendin

March 18, 2009

“What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing?-it’s the too huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-by. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.”

-On the Road by Jack Kerouac

No quote better summarized my feelings when I left the Bay Area to start my fellowship with Kiva in Peru. This video is a glimpse into my crazy adventure; a day in the life of a Kiva Fellow. But more importantly, it’s a window into the life of the loan officers at my MFI, Manuela Ramos/CrediMujer, who work hard to reach borrowers in rural Peru. Enjoy!
