 *Mountain road*

*In the latest in our series on people's daily lives, Marta Deriba, 15, from
Eritrea (back, right) explains how she picks and sells cactus fruit.*

I live with my family in the village of Arbe Rebo on the steep mountain road
that goes from the capital, Asmara, down to the sea.

My mother's name is Letegebrial, and I have five brothers and sisters -
Selam, Tesfankiel, Haftamu, Merhawi, and Hewan, who is holding Sirak the cat
in this picture.
