The family lives in Colombia. R is 64 years old and he is a farmer. His wife D is 44 years old and they live with their three children in a 3-bedroom house. They own the house and have been living there for a year. They like the house because it’s cheaper compared to renting a place and the neighbours are nice, however, they are unsatisfied with its size and quality. The family’s favorite items in the house are the blankets. Their next big plan is to buy a gas stove and their dream is to buy a fridge.

The family lives in Colombia. R is 64 years old and he is a farmer. His wife D is 44 years old and looks after the household. They have three children: L is 14, M is 13 and G is 11 years old. Together the couple works 94 hours a week. They live in a three-bedroom house that they own, and have been living here for one year. There is no electricity. The house has its own toilet, but the family collects drinking water from a neighbor’s hose. The family spends 70% of its income on food. They use wood for cooking and they spend 20 hours a week collecting firewood. The family isn’t saving any money. They are planning to buy a gas stove and are hoping that one day they might fulfill their dreams of having electricity and buying a refrigerator.
