This post is about Weverton! The mild mannered, sweet, 14 year old son of Cica who has spent most of his life in COPAVI. Weverton took some of my favorite photos, and definitely demonstrates his sense of humor.
Weverton works in COPAVI at the agroindustry, and helps to process organic brown sugar. He likes his work, and likes that earns enough to be able to buy clothes, go to the fair, and help his mom.
Weverton doesn't know exactly what he wants to do when he grows up, but he intends to continue to help his mother.
He has lots of friends in the settlement! This photo was taken at Adriano's birthday party.
This one is of his youngest brother, missing a few teeth.
This is Mateus, another brother...a photo shot after we discovered the "fish lense" function in the camera.
Jackson and the anthropologist, at the kitchen table, waiting for lunch.
Weverton's favorite place in the settlement is the Saião. He likes to swim and play there with his friends. (See video!)
A few more shots of Adriano's birthday barbeque...
