On fire

Meet Mr. Aguinaldo. He is 71 and works as a shoe shiner in one of the busiest place of São Paulo. He uses an unique technique of setting some kind of shoe polish on fire to make the shoes look almost like new. If that wasn't amazing enough, he told a little bit about his life. He became orphan when he was 8 and went to live with his grandparents in a farm. The grandparents didn't care for him, so he was raised by an old maid that became his mother. After joining the army, he worked in a tannery, as a docker, a cop and a lot of other jobs. He married twice and had 14 children. It is one of those guys whose life looks like a movie script.

PS: And my shoes do look like new now!
