Poor Woman in Nigeria

An interesting photo essay from Nigeria on BBC World. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/picture_gallery/07/africa_roadside_chef/html/1.stm

The BBC website has a great photo journal that shows the grueling (vocab word) life of a poor woman in Nigeria. She sells food very cheaply to try and earn one or two dollars to feed her own family.

I like this photo journal because it shows images that help me see her life, but it also includes short descriptions to help me understand her life.
