#1 I thought about going back to Venezuela, as I had done many times before, to see my paternal grandparents and feel the humidity of the streets, and to be back in my childhood home in El Hatillo, a working-class neighborhood on the slopes of Mount Parque. -> I had been working nonstop since the start of the pandemic, traveling from one city to the next, and I felt nostalgic for Caracas, the city I had grown up in and left behind fifteen years earlier.

#2 I couldn’t believe it when I found out that my grandfather had been kidnapped, and I was shocked to see him alive in a video clip of the event.

#3 My grandfather was a brilliant, creative, and inquisitive man who had many interests and abilities, which allowed him to be creative and original in his ideas and their execution. He was kidnapped by Marxist guerrilla forces in Venezuela in 1971.
