  To summarize what has happened so far in Solito -- Javier has introduced us to all the main characters of his hometown that have each had an integral part in raising him. However, as Javier reaches 10 years old, he is now of age to be transported by “coyote” to the United States to be reunited with his mother and father. A coyote is a person who is known for smuggling people or items from South America to the United States. They are oftentimes also affiliated with cartels and other criminal organizations that are in charge of operating most illegal activities. Javier lives in a small fishing town that has only one way in and one way out: “a pothole-filled asphalt road that ends at the pier where fisherman leave hours before dawn and return around noon to auction the day’s catch.” Therefore, the town has only one coyote that visits twice or three times a year, known as Don Dago.

We spent half of the work day in the field, more specifically the marshes of the Hudson River, collecting s...

Excerpt from Post 1: “For this reading assignment, I chose The Wayfinders: Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World by Wade Davis, which takes readers on a thrilling journey to celebrate the wisdom of the world’s indigenous cultures. I chose to read this memoir because Jessica told me that she liked the first couple of pages of the book when she gave it a quick read. However, the main reason is that, as a USC student, I have difficulty navigating the academic and career challenges that I encounter in a fast-paced university environment. Surrounded by hustle culture, I rarely take time to smell the roses – so this book will hopefully give me a perspective from indigenous cultures to discover a more fulfilling approach to life.” After having read the majority of the book thus far, I believe that I have gotten a lot of what I had hoped for. There were many lessons that I had not expected from the book that I was happily surprised to learn. In this post, I will discuss two recurring ...
