When I first got to Belize, I stayed with a host family for the first nine months of my service. I lived with two younger brothers, aged nine and 11, and their mother. Although I no longer live with them anymore, we still remain very close to this day. So, for this post, I decided to interview my oldest host brother named Miko. Below are his responses to the questions.
My mom will cook me breakfast before school, which is usually pancakes. My granny comes around once a week and cooks lots and lots of food for hours at a time. Her specialities are stew chicken with rice and beans, spaghetti and stuffed fry jacks.
I live in a bright yellow house. Me and my brother share a room with a TV. Mia used to live with us, but now my granny sleeps in that room sometimes. We just got a trampoline, too!
Now that I am almost 12, my ma wants me to cook more for myself. I help out with sweeping the house and cleaning my dishes when I’m done.
