"The biggest challenge is that our house is not clean well due to the poverty. We started living together with my husband in 2020. We are not legally married because we were not stable financially but hopefully in the future, we will make it. So far, we do not have enough land to use in farming and we only have one goat. Getting fertilizer is not easy for us. In summary, we are poor."
