My Trading Buddy from Worlds

She was a serious haggler. After offering me 2-3 kid sized shirts that she brought from Mexico, she settled on trading her (Mum’s) Mexico shirt for my Canada shirt. She had a whole bag of things and was serious about the trading business. Mum looked on with all smiles as her and her brother ripped it up in the trading frenzy at Worlds. After our trade, we both immediately put on each other’s shirts and gave each other big smiles. It’s my favorite piece of the uniform from Worlds – mainly because of the connection with this little girl (future triathlete star, I’m sure!).
