Trying To Stay Hopeful
From the border, he made his way to San Diego, California, where he lived under a freeway, homeless and hopeless. He survived off of hot dogs, 2 for $1. His goal each day was to make at least $1, giving him the ability to eat, and somehow survive. Cesar tried to stay hopeful during these times, but it proved to be extremely difficult. All of a sudden, an opportunity presented itself, he would be living on the streets no more.

Hidden Talents
Although he didn’t know English, Cesar made the effort to learn a few useful English phrases before coming to the U.S. One being, “do you have an application for work?” He used this line wherever and whenever he could, attempting to score his first job in the land of freedom. His hard work had finally paid off…he was hired as a part-time dog groomer! After just a few days on the job, the owners noticed his amazing ability to handle all types of dogs, even the most unruly and aggressive ones. They were very impressed and surprised by their new hire’s talent.
