5 Fingers for 5 Continents

Island of Santiago, Cape Verde. No rain. Wait. No rain for 3 years. For 1096 days. Surrounded by water. Is there a right and a wrong water?

Houses all over the island with floors that are not finished. Like an unfulfilled dream. The dream of 1 Million Cape Verdeans living abroad.

No green for the eyes, but dryness and dust. Desert. Wind. Small plants, seem to be like brave survivors.
