Hi my name is Karen Lopez. This person that I interview is a friendly person. Her name is Beatris Figueroa and she is 63 years old, she now is living in this country named Belize, in the Cayo district in a village named Saint Margret.
She was born on 16th March, 1950 in Guatemala at Puerto San Jose. When she was growing she didn’t go to school and her work was to do salt out of the sea beach along with her daddy and her brothers and sisters. She also was a fishing young lady. She was always there fishing lobsters and fish.
25 years ago she came from Guatemala to our country Belize with her husband Lucio Herrera and 3 of her sons. While time passed she had 14 sons but 4 of them died and 10 are alive. While time passed she works on cutting down oranges for 2 months and then she stopped. After these 2 months she dedicates herself to doing domestic work and to taking care of dogs, chickens, cats and of course she takes care of her sons and daughters.
Beatris has the art of making some beautiful and delicious tortillas. This is what I interviewed of Beatris Figueroa. Bye until the next week
