The inspiring story of one man's efforts to make the world a better place. Jaume Sanllorente was a twenty-seven-year-old journalist leading an active and exciting life in Barcelona -- more idealistic than the average young professional -- when a travel agent convinced him to spend his vacation in India. It turned out to be a trip that literally changed his life, along with the lives of many others. When Sanllorente discovered that an orphanage in the slums of Mumbai was about to shut down, he vowed to rescue it, and he dedicated his life to those children and to the rebuilding of a community on the brink of collapse. Bombay Smiles is his -- and their -- story.
