Meet 48 y/o Chhaya . 

She sat on a wooden plank by a tree in a puddle of roses . 3-4 women sat around her and watched as she artistically made little garlands . These would later be sold at traffic lights when they turn red . 

Chhaya was a pleasant lady . She was smiling and enjoyed talking to me . She has been selling flower garlands since she was a child . 
Her sick husband  , lives in their village in Gujarat. She gets to meet him once a year . 

She had no tools except a needle . She did everything else by hand . Her daily earning was 150 -200 ( 2.5$ )
