The family lives in Cambodia. S is 49 years old and is a farmer. His wife D is 47 years old and she used to be a teacher but is now a farmer. Their daughter O, 24 years old, is an accountant, and their son V, 21 years old, is a student. Together, they works for 168 hours a week. The family lives in a single-room house that they built and own. They've been living there for the past 12 years. The house has electricity but it sometimes fails. The toilet is outside the home and not shared with other households. They also own some land. The family has to buy 70% of their food, which costs them about half of their income, while they produce the other 30% of food supplies themselves. They spend an extra 10 hours a week on home agricultural activities and 1½ hours collecting water and wood, which is used as fuel for cooking. Sidon also spends 10 hours a week doing housework. The family saves money and hasn’t been on vacation in many years. The furthest they’ve ever been is Siem Reap, Cambodia. The next thing they plan to spend money on is shopping in the market. They hope that one day they will be able to fulfil their dream of educating their children.
