In the photos taken by Pajo, you can see a sleeping Tatay while sitting on the steps of a local bakeshop in the area.

He has no family of his own and lives with his sibling. He sells ice drop for a living.

This holiday season let’s make Tatay feel a little bit merry by supporting his small business. /rcg
