The family lives in Jordan. Z is 39 years old and is a construction worker. His wife H is also 39 years old and she stays home with their five children. The family lives in a 1-bedroom house which belongs to their extended family. They are living here because it’s free of rent and they don’t have any other housing option. The downside of the house is that it gets very cold during the winter. The family dreams of one day being able to afford their own house. Their next big plan is to either buy a computer or a TV.

The family lives in Jordan. Z is 39 years old and is a construction worker. His wife H is also 39 years old and she stays home with their five children. They have 3 daughters, R, 17 years old, M, 13 years old, and R, 10 years old and 2 sons, Y, 6 years old, and O, 5 years old. Z supports his family by working 54 hours per week. The family lives in a 1-bedroom house which is owned by their extended family, so they pay no rent. They don’t like the house because it gets cold during the winters, but they have no other housing option. It has electricity which fails occasionally during the winters, and an indoor toilet, but no drinking water facility, so they purchase bottled drinking water. Half of the family’s income is spent on purchasing their food supplies. They use propane in the kitchen to cook their food. The family has no bank account and doesn’t save money. Their next big plan is to either buy a computer or a TV and their dream is to one day buy their own house.
