Description: Graffiti, as a form of urban art, and responsible tourism are the central themes of this inspiring story. Carlos was born and raised in Comuna 13, a neighborhood in Medellín. Despite its violent past, this area reinvented itself through art, becoming a popular tourist destination for both locals and visitors. This story illustrates how we always have the chance to rewrite our lives, and what once defined us doesn’t have to define us forever. The book uses voseo, which is how people speak in Medellín. In Spanish grammar, voseo is the use of vos as the second-person singular pronoun, requiring special verb conjugations. Many regions in Latin America and Colombia use vos instead of tú, known as tuteo. Countries where voseo is used include Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, parts of Bolivia, parts of Colombia, parts of Venezuela, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, and Costa Rica, among others.
