I live in the jungle. And this is a poor representation of what life is here. No one likes to live in filth. Most of it is here from people doing illegal dumping or from the people that choose to move out of this area leaving behind everything that they decide not to pack up with them. This is not where most of us would choose to live. But it is a place where we are able to stay, for now. We and I think I speak for most of us would like to have other options but of course we are plagued with addiction mental health issues job insecurities financial insecurities home insecurities you name it it's there all across the board. We are not monsters. We are no different than most people. We are mothers daughters Fathers and sons we are human and just trying to live, survive.
