Work in the family
-

-
with a family of peasants who were working for my mother’s family, who were called “servants” at the time.
-

-
they had the machinery for threshing and ploughing the land, so 4 or 5 of them got together and started this activity.
-
After that he always did that job, he was always a thresher:
-
they went out to plough, to thresh, these type of things.
-
When I was 10 I started to work as a seamstress, or I should say to learn how to be a seamstress.
-
I helped my mother out a little, because we also had about 20.000 square meters of land,
-
we had a cow or two for milk, in order to go to the dairy to get some cheese, butter, etc.
-

-
my father would help us more with these things, while in the summer he was always working.

-
Then we found a stick, a piece of wood, and we secured this flag to it
