Learning requires motivation and effort, even when the means of transportation to get to school is a llama from the Andean moors of Ecuador. For this reason, Jhoel Guanotuña, an 8-year-old boy from an indigenous community in the province of Cotopaxi, has become the inspiration for other boys in his town who break barriers to improve themselves. Jhoel’s initiative became known through a TikTok video that went viral. Ana María Cañizares traveled to the community of Angamarca and tells us more details.
