Jumeli putting on her headscarf.  

“My name is Jumeli Yanti and I am eleven years old. I used to live in a village, but my house was destroyed by the tsunami.”

Jumeli lives in Aceh, Indonesia. Her family now live in a camp for people who lost their homes. They have to share their tent with six other families. “It’s much harder living in a tent than living in a house,” Jumeli says. “It gets very hot, and when it rains water comes in and there’s lots of mud outside.”
