I am very happy to receive this money. I will use the money to build a bigger house. The old house that I was living in was destroyed by the rains last season. I want to live in a house with iron sheets because I am tired of living in a house with a thatched roof.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the afternoon when I have had enough food. This makes me happy because it is the time that I am with my family and we chat while having food.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face is not having enough money. As a fisherman sometimes I make losses when some of the fish go bad. I also face this hardship when the fishing season is closed because that means I do not have any source of money.
