<br />
I was deported.<br />
<br />
I went because I couldn’t find any work, there’s nothing here. I’m single, I live at home, I have no children, but I have to help my parents. Even with a profession here, there’s no employment. Lots of people from round here decide to migrate, to find a better future. <br />
<br />
Maybe it’s not as bad here as in some other areas, not many people are hungry, no one dies of hunger here. But, there’s scarcity, there are families who don’t get to eat three times a day. In Honduras the violence is terrible, generally. Catacamas is tough, it’s dangerous. Our particular neighbourhood isn’t too bad though.<br />
<br />
My brother is in the US, he sent money for me to try to get there. He paid $3500, that’s gone.<br />
<br />
I got to Houston, through Juarez, by the bridge. I was there for three months, detained. It was difficult there. I was punished, they sent me from place to place, the food was terrible, you don’t even see sunlight, you don’t know what time of the day it is. The ice boxes are the worst, you freeze. I couldn’t bear it. I signed the papers to be deported. There are lots of stories of people who take their own lives. It’s a bad feeling, terrible feeling there. <br />
<br />
Among the staff in the detention centres, there are bad people, they enjoy making you suffer.<br />
<br />
I was lucky on the journey, it wasn’t much suffering, but in detention it was bad. Some of the women I was with suffered a lot more on the journey, some had broken arms and legs, one had her face all disfigured, another was all cut and grazed, accidents on the train or getting over the wall, or traffic accidents. <br />
<br />
Women travelling have extra risks. A lot of women are raped, or killed. <br />
<br />
I did a course with the LWF, three months training, cutting hair and beauty salon work. I’ve learned to be less shy. I’m working in a salon now, cutting hair. I like doing that. I think in the future, God willing, and with the support of the LWF, I’ll set up m
