Today I´m going to talk to you of my friend Chilo, is a typical character, those who still swarm the suburbs of the city, almost on the countryside, plain person, simple, uncomplicataed tastes, never takes off his hat, just when he sleeps or bathe, doest´t have a mobile, tv´s broken and he doesn´t worry about it, he just listens to his transistor pile radio, trouble there is when pile stacks out!
As kids we would give back because he looks like the man of the sack, mothers told us to keep us away from the street due to the appearance, ..let´s say different our personage holds.
As a mean of subsistence collects cardboard and plastics for the recycling, to have cents for the little soup as he says; collects it in his tortón as he nicknames his three-wheeled cycle, those for charge.
I call him friend cause that´s how he refers to me, and so I think him, in a friendship backen up fifteen years ago, when he arrived to my store for cardboard and clothes; he, of my first costumers, refers to the companion of his life as viejita, and to me as Tote, for amigote, you know.
Decided to include a photo, otherwise you wouldn´t believe a guy like him is still touring city and country-sides, and that we are really bros!
I appreciate him in return of his own appretiation, person of thanks and please, respect and tradition,, that´s my friend Chilitti,...I was gonna write here that he´s an endangered species, but doesn´t make any justice to him, simply finish that characters like him don´t grow on pots, which I consider doesn´t make any justice either; he´s an unusual person, only offer.
Why Chilo?, you may ask, he was baptised with the christian name of Maria Auxilio ... hee ...we´ll better refer to him as Chilo, Chilito of affection.
