A life in the day of .... A street hawker
Dismus Nsengiyera, 20, is a street vendor, selling items like sweets in Remera, Gasabo district I always wake up at 7a.m and take a shower. Ordinarily, since I am not a rich person, I skip breakfast. The money I would have used for breakfast, I save it and add it on what I have for lunch. Having lunch is very crucial unlike the breakfast. At around, 7:30 a.m, I dress up. Before I head for work, I pick my packed sweets and chewing gums but before leaving for work, I first see whether the sweets are enough for sustain my clients. I hit the streets towards 8a.m.
