Maria Leonor Melendez Benitez
55 years old / Homeowner
She sells traditional snacks and occasionally makes chicken and corn tamales. She enjoys watching the news on television.
Víctor Manuel Alfaro
62 years old / Maria’s husband
Victor does pretty much any job he is asked to do. When he has time, he likes to walk in the mountains and he has been with Maria for 13 years.
They have been living in their current house for 13 years, which they built themselves. The house is made of metal sheets and wooden posts, but the materials are now in poor condition, causing leaks and humidity.
