Eva Jackson has a dream …

Eva works in a small restaurant, and has ambition. She wants to be beautiful and she wants to own her own supermarket. She wanted to be a doctor in secondary school, but her parents didn’t have the money.

As a little girl she got burned by hot liquid all over herself and that maimed and scarred her face, creating a malfunctioning nose.

In Arusha the mineral Tanzanite (blue colored stone) is mined. Eva comes out of that Mererani region, near the mines.

Eva has no children, but that’s because she has no relationship. There is no man in her life who wants to stay with her.

When she moves from the hospital, she is a powerful woman working to her future. Hopefully her dream comes true.
