Jorge’s son, a young guy living the Rasta lifestyle, wants to make a pair of sandals for his girlfriend’s birthday.

Jorge came to Bluefields many years ago from the Caribbean coast of Colombia, has worked with handicrafts as long as he can remember and prefers life in Nicaragua because it’s more calm.
