“I needed to find myself again, to rebuild my life. I was born in Colombia, throwing my whole life towards one goal: to be the best, to compete in the Olympics, but my dreams were shattered. A training accident changed my life forever. My face had to be reconstructed, if I got hit again it could be fatal. My whole world was turned upside down, I was completely lost. I came here to find a new life. I left everything behind - my wife waited 4 years for me. When she saw me again I wasn’t in a good place, I was overweight, I was depressed. It’s times like that when you find out what you are really made of.” – Paul. Watch the full video to hear their incredible story. #WhatsYourStory
