What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to spend my transfer on buying two bulls and a ploughing machine so that I can plough my farm easily, I will buy one dairy cow that I will keep for milk, I will spend part of the transfer on building a house for my wife and the remaining amount I will spend on buying furniture for my house which will include chairs, a table and a bed.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement that I am proudest of is that I have been able to plant crops on my farm which enabled me to get a good harvest during the previous planting season.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face in my life is that currently I don't have food in my house as we had consumed all that we had harvested and this makes us to go a day without a meal.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is when I go to my farm in the morning and plough it after which I go out to look after my cattle. This makes me happy as I am able to take care of the little property that I own.
