Johan Elian is 19 years old, in a common-law marriage, does not have children, and his spouse is a homemaker. They live in Jaramijo, a lovely place where its inhabitants are very humble and hard-working people who work selling seafood.
Johan Elian is a young man who likes to work every day so to be able to pay the household expenses. It is for this reason that, when he was 13 years old, he began to work with his father. But, after he joined with his spouse, his father decided to loan him his boat so that Johan Elian can generate income and also get his family ahead.
For this, Johan Elian goes out to do his work every day to then sell the fish to the merchants. This loan will help him a lot because he will be able to continue with his business. He will use this loan to purchase fishing materials and do maintenance on the boat. His dreams are to have his own boat and that his business gradually grows.
