MY FAMILY:

I live with my mom, my  dad and my sister. My mom’s name is Edith, my dad’s name is Policarpo, and my sister’s name is Juliana. To support my family my dad works as a delivery courier.

MY HOME & COMMUNITY:

Our house has two bedrooms and one bathroom. It is located in “Guabal,” a neighborhood located in southern Bogota, Colombia. It is made of wood and has metal sheets as a roof. We have electricity, but there is no waste management. Water arrives once 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.
