“Sometimes, we speak on the phone. Maybe twice every month. The network is not so good around here, so it’s difficult for me to understand what he is trying to say. But when the line is clear, he tells me that he hasn’t been able to earn much. He tells me that he has his own expenses to meet and sending money home will take some time. I assume it is hard for him there. Somehow a year has passed, two more years now.”
