At the age of 16, still very young, Osvaldo was given by his father a piece of his coffee plantation, so that he would work on it, since he had drop out of school. Since that moment Osvaldo fell in love with coffee and thanks to his every day effort and tenacity, he now owns almost 4 hectares of land dedicated to coffee plantations, which is their main income and allows them to live a full and very happy life.
