When you lose everything in a blink of an eye...
Arriving at the airport of Concepciรณn on Sunday 18/01/26, the wildfires were spreading everywhere in the neigbourhood.
At my hostal I met Wilma and Manual, a lovely couple who just escaped from the fire.
The next day, they asked me to join them to look at their house or at least what is left of it.
Many people (+10.000) are affected by these wildfires in Concepciรณn. So far more than 700 houses are destroyed and about 20 people are killed.
It is brutal and painful!
But in these extreme situations, I also see something very beautiful happening...
I see a lot of people supporting and helping each other in many ways.
I see LOVE โค๏ธ
It's not a myth... Love survives everything!
And we are stronger than we think if we allow love to help us.
Thank you Wilma and Manuel for showing me your house, your beautiful family and showing me LOVE. Keep following your beautiful heart and believe that the road will show you the way ๐ฃ
