Abushe is 8, he lives in south Ethiopia, i met him in front of a bank. His blue eyes were just incredible. I came back the day after to try to know more about this kid. His mother works in a farm , 30 km from there, his father is dead. He used to live in his grand mother house, but last week, a fire erupted in the poor wooden house, so he lost all his school books and his blanquet. As the grand mother house is too far from the school, he lives in a very small room in a metal house without window, full of dirt, and sleeps there on with a friend. At 8 years old. As his books have burnt, he cannot go to school anymore. His blue eyes allowed him to meet foreigners who took care of him on this day, but so many kids with black eyes are also living this incredible life...
