MY FAMILY:

I live with my mom and my brothers. My mom’s name is Francy and my brothers are Steven, and Erick. My mom works cleaning houses.

MY HOME & COMMUNITY:

Our house has two bedrooms where 6 people sleep and one bathroom. It is located in “Altos de la Florida,” a neighborhood in Soacha, Colombia. We have electricity,  but there is no waste management. Water arrives twice per week, and we have to collect  it in containers to use it for cooking, bathing, and drinking. The weather is cold and the streets are unpaved.
