The 22-year-old said that life in Lebanon is depressing because of the low wage and the claustrophobic atmosphere.<\/p>\n \u201cThe monthly salary equivalent to Ghana cedes is 600ghc. I send it all to my family because my father lost his cocoa farm, and my mom needs money for her health. The family I work with don\u2019t maltreat me, but the workload is too much, and the salary isn\u2019t enough,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Samira implied that she regrets her decision to travel to Lebanon sometimes, but \u201cI thank God because I get something small to send to my family. I want my younger siblings to get an education.\u201d<\/p>\n – –<\/span> Speaking about the living atmosphere in the city she lives in, the young lady revealed that it isn\u2019t as peaceful as Ghana.<\/p>\n \u201cIt hasn\u2019t been peaceful since the explosion. We often hear gunshots and bombs. So we only go out to buy groceries. Many people die here every day. It\u2019s more than living in prison. Everybody is scared.
