Hello, my name is Abdias.  I come from a Protestant family.  I am an only child.  I live with my parents in a small home that does not have running water or electricity.  The well is about half a kilometer from our home.  Neither one of my parents has a regular job, but they do what they can to earn a little money and we have a small family farm where we try to grow the food that we eat throughout the year.

I live really far from my school.  It is over 6 kilometers! Right now, my parents take me to school, but some day I would like to have a bike so that I can go on my own.  I have learned how to ride one and it is my favorite thing to do around my house.  I love riding bikes!
