Wally, who was born in Iraq first came to Nicaragua 11 years ago. When you first meet him, the gentle soul seems unimposing, but as so often the first perception is misleading. Wally is actually an all-or-nothing kind of person. He follows his intuition and always gives it his everything. Listening to his path in Nicaragua was impressive.
