The Cuban model based in Miami, Juliette Valle, known for her participation in the show Las Locuras de Miguelín, shared an emotional story on Instagram as she recalled the first pair of sneakers she bought with her own money after arriving in the United States.
“While organizing my closet, I just came across these sneakers... these were the first ones I was able to buy with my own money in the United States”, Juliette shared in a video where she shows a pair of athletic shoes with the classic Nike logo.
The young woman explained that when she arrived in Miami three years ago and started working, she dedicated her first paycheck to buy those sneakers and a similar pair in black. “I bought them with effort. My first paycheck was to buy these sneakers,” she shared proudly.
Although she now keeps them as a memento, Juliette emphasized the sentimental value they hold for her: “At that moment, starting from scratch, making sacrifices... even if it was something trivial, it meant a lot to me. And I still have them.”
In the post, the model added a message of gratitude and motivation for her followers:
"I arrived with sacrifice, fear, and a strong desire to move forward. Today I have a little more, but I don't forget where I came from. Thank God and my saints. And you, who are watching me, don't give up; every effort bears fruit."
With this gesture, Juliette Valle recalled her beginnings and inspired those who, like her, emigrated in search of a better future.
