The U.N. refugee agency estimates more than 3 million Venezuelans have left their homeland because of political and economic turmoil. Some Venezuelans have boarded flights to Europe, others have set out on foot to neighboring countries like Colombia and Brazil. Still others have boarded buses and headed to more distant countries in South America, like Peru and Chile. VOA News reporter Jorge Agobian tracked two Venezuelans who headed south on a bus with little more than hope for a better future.
