For this reason, I often felt like an animal trapped in a cage, full of energy, craving excitement but limited to the small world that my  Papá  had created. I knew I wanted more. I needed more, but as a child, what could I do? It was the day that my cousin drove up on a dirtbike that something changed inside me.
