We plan to spend the transfer to start a business that will provide us with an income. We also plan to spend the transfer to buy household items like furniture. We also plan to spend the transfer on renting a parcel of land that we will use to grow crops. We also plan to use part of the transfer to buy sheep.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
Our proudest achievement is that we have worked so hard and managed to construct iron roofed house. We were able to do this from the savings that we got from fishing.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that we have faced is lack of a reliable source of income. We depend on fishing and agriculture which are not reliable in this area so sometimes we have to miss some meals to cope up with the high cost of living.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when am in the farm harvesting crops. I feel very happy because am assured of getting food.
