WHAT: Miniature Picture of Simon Bolivar – Liberator
WHERE FROM: Medellin, Colombia
WHEN: 1996
Simon Bolivar was the General that liberated 5 nations in South America from the colonial domination of the Spaniards. He has been a pivotal figure in my formation and someone I consider a Hero.
At our paternal home we used to sit around to talk about history. That is where my interest in history was born. And with it my admiration for this great man, Simon Bolivar, and I collect everything related with him. How I could leave Medellin without him?
En mi casa paterna siempre tuvimos tertulias de historia patria, ahí nació mi admiración por este gran hombre y colecciono todo lo relacionado con él. Como podría haber partido de Medellín sin él?
