Description:
Jonathan wakes up every day at 3:15 in the morning. He dresses and follows his sister and mother to work at Mercado Mayorista on the south side of Quito, Ecuador. The family works together all morning, selling fruit and other goods. By midday, Jonathan and his sister are ready to go to school for another six hours. Afterward, the young Ecuadorian boy hops on the bus and rides across town, to eventually end up back home around 7p.m. This is Jonathan's daily routine.
