Our house

We bought our house with a loan from the government at low interest. We've paid it all off. It is too small for us now that we are seven, with my partner's brother also living with us. If we could afford it, we would build an extension to the house. Since we have a large lot, there is enough space.

Here I am preparing arepas, cornmeal cakes, for dinner. Angela, my 15-year-old daughter, is helping me while Ingrimar, who is 10, is watching TV.
