Couples who brick lay together stay together: skilful young couple inspires Mzansi
Briefly News also reported Lerato Lubisi, 29, is a true inspiration to many women and girls as she breaks ground in the male-dominated industry of bricklaying. Not only does Lerato build with pride and confidence, but she does so with her base at her side every step of the way. In this inspiring couple's case the adage is: Couples who brick lay together stay together.
It has been six months since Lerato started with the heavy-duty job, which is mostly handled by men.
Lerato is her 34-year-old husband Maya Lubisi's assistant. She helps him mix sand and hands him mixed cement, just like an assistant in bricklaying is supposed to do.
