Maria Elida Gonzalez de Espinoza
51 years old / homeowner
Maria Elida is a stay at home mom of 3 children, they will live in the new house with her and her husband (he was working at the time of the interview). Maria prepares tamales (typical salvadoran dishes) and goes out to sell them at her community.
Andrea Yuleisy Esponiza Gonzalez
20 years old / Maria’s daughter
Andrea works as a meat clerk at a supermarket. She started working there seven months ago.
The house where they live was built 19 years ago. It is made of bahareque, a mixture of mud and bamboo sticks, and the roof is made of sheet metal. Because the walls are made of mud, they have holes where bees have made their nests.
