Lorenzo Ramon’s parents tought him to work from a young age and never gave him the opportunity to study. But he is very entrepreneurial. Since coffee grows well in his region, Lorenzo decided it was a good bet to be able to earn a living. To ensure income, he runs a “bus” route through a difficult mountain range with a truck he bought. Lorenzo lives with his two adult children; Bielka Liseth (37) and Jose Angel (25). Another son, Lorenzo Antonio, and Lorenzo Antonio’s wife Maricela, together with Lorenzo Ramon, produce this lot called “Dos Lorenzos.”
