Personal memory by Claudia Valencia
2016 • Panama City, Panama
Panama is a small country with big-hearted people and warm natural landscapes. In this beautiful place, there is diversity in species and forests, but it is not protected enough. The dry season is longer and longer each year, bringing water shortage, fires, and animal loss. The metropolis grows to leave behind the rest of beautiful forests, but conscience hasn't been acquired about it.
