Eustaquio Quispe
a ferry landing town on Lake Titicaca, Bolivia
Eustaquio Quispe, at 65, has driven the school bus for as long as he can remember, ferrying children across town. The consistent routine and the concern for both the safety of the children and the longevity of the ferry's engine dominates his thoughts. Each day, amidst his steady dedication, he finds moments of quiet wonder, like the water stains on his ceiling that appear as maps to him, stirring his imagination of distant places.
