Nasaria Ramos

 

Family: Nasaria Ramos

Nasaria is a 79 year old elderly woman who lives alone.  If you want to imagine how difficult Nasaria’s life has been, all it takes is a quick look at her feet.  We have never seen her wearing shoes, and her deformed and worn out - but strong and leathery feet seem to tell the story of a long hard life.

 

Her home is a tin shed tucked into some brush on a hill in the town of Buena Vista.  It is dark and dirty, with dirt floors, no windows, and no electricity.
