Mercedes Morales Ramirez

45 years old / Homemaker

When Mercedes is done with the household chores, she walks her children to school, which is 15 minutes from her home. She lives with her two kids and her husband, Jose Luis Cornejo, who is 56 years old. He was not at home on the day of the interview. Mercedes has been living in that house for 5 years. She and her husband built it, but the wood is rotting, and the mud washes away every time it rains.
