Melina Julexi's story
Melina Julexi and her family live in Montecristi, a beautiful place with hard-working, friendly people and ancient traditions. They are experts in creating handicrafts from toquilla straw, wicker, piquigua and wood. They are also known for making high-quality toquilla straw hats, which are recognised both at home and abroad.
Melina Julexi is an excellent mother and woman who, in her free time at home, offers a variety of beverages such as water, juice, soft drinks, sweets, ice cream, snacks, and beer, which she sells daily. In this way, she can take care of her children and give them the best. She also helps her husband market tagua [palm ivory] in its natural state by the bag and sell it to artisans who use tagua to make various crafts. They work from Monday to Saturday.
She is very grateful for the assistance and ongoing support she receives, which enables her to give her family the best she can.
