Salvador was born in a small village in the province of Seville, Spain where he lived until 2002. Throughout many years he worked in dining establishments, building, and in the fields, until he decided to go try his luck in Palma de Mallorca. There he operated in hotels and in building, up until the financial crisis erupted and he was left without work or benefits of any kind and he began to live in the street: "The street has few good ideas, but it teaches you to be more generous, to share with others what you have, even if it isn't much." In 2006, a friend encouraged him to come along to Barcelona and bought his plane ticket. Once there, things did not go much better and he had to continue residing in the street. A year ago he left behind that life and now he explains his experience in directed tours to school groups: "I like it due to the fact that I see that a number of them are interested and they ask questions. It is excellent that they discover."
