"I already had a baby girl and was divorced by the time I was fourteen. I was a mother now, but I was still young, cute and very popular with the boys. I liked sex and I had a lot of boyfriends. They would share their marijuana with me and their beer or rum or glue or whatever they had and we'd have sex. I liked sex and drinking and the drugs. The sex was just one part of it all.
“But I was still very poor. I worked for a few weeks at an ice cream factory but I didn't like it and I hardly made any money there. One of my boyfriends, told me about a place I could earn money just by having sex with gringos, the Hotel El Jardin.
