“We are in my home,” Laura Lyday says with a smile. “My little bungalow is what I call it.”
Lyday’s "bungalow" is a small studio-style room in a converted hotel. She was homeless off and on for 11 years, often sleeping in a tent, and it’s only when she reflects on those nights that the smile fades and tears arrive.
“It’s hard not know where you’re going to sleep,” she said. “It’s hard not knowing how you’re going to eat every day.”
