"When I got married about 8 years ago, I faced a rough time. My husband and I were unmployed. Unfortunately, we could hardly find some work (casual jobs since we are not skilled in any specific field) to do. Hence, our family almost broke due to lack of funds for meeting our basic needs. Subsequently, my husband had to travel far and stay for extended periods in search of job. Luckily, our family successfully sailed through the challenge. I find that as the biggest challenge I have faced in life."

"The greatest achievement that I am proudest of is that we have managed to buy about an acre of land using returns from the sale of my only two cows. Initially, we had a small piece of land that was hardly enough for us to settle and farm. I built-up savings using gains from my casual work and purchased the two cows. Luckily, my husband provided financial support and we bought the piece of land that serves as our main source of living - where we live and farm."
