Miguel Ignacio Mendoza a.k.a Nacho of the Venezuelan duo Chino & Nacho can totally relate to their 2010 hit "Tu Angelito" after his heroic deed last month.
The Venezuelan singer was put under the spotlight on Facebook by user Yadirys Monsalve, who shared a heartwarming anecdote regarding her, her husband and Nacho. "Appreciating the solidarity of a Venezuelan living in the exterior," she said of the singer before sharing her "magical experience" that occurred ending June.
Monsalve writes the long story without leaving behind any detail, but in a gist, Nacho is a real angelito with a big heart.
As it turns out the woman and her husband had been stranded at the airport in Panama for two days after missing their flight back home to Venezuela. Unfortunately, the couple did not have enough funds to pay the airline penalty fee of $782. In the letter, she expresses on how nobody at the airport wanted to help or offer other alternatives. They only suggested to go to the streets to ask for money or sell their valuable possessions. After many desperate hours, Mrs. Monsalve's prayers were answered when she stumbled upon Nacho at the airport's entrance.
She claims that Nacho asked her if everything was alright, and she immediately told him about her frustration. Without hesitation, Nacho offered to help her and her husband. She overheard him explain the situation to Chino and managed to hear him say, "I'm going to help them, I'm not going to turn my back on them, they are our Venezuelan countrymen." And in a heartbeat, Nacho bought the couple two one-way tickets back home.
Monsalve offered to pay back the money, to which Nacho simply said: "You don't owe me anything. Just thank God and don't lose faith."
