Philippine couple find love, hope among typhoon misery

This photo taken on November 1, 2015 shows typhoon Haiyan survivor Juvelyn Luana (R) with her partner Joel posing for photos with their baby Jacob in front of their new house at a resettlement site in Tacloban City, Leyte province, central Philippines. Haiyan smashed already impoverished fishing and farming communities in the central islands on November 8, 2013, leaving 7,350 people dead or missing. AFP PHOTO

Two years after the monster storm devastated the coastal city of Tacloban, killing thousands, Luana has a new partner, a new son and a shack far from the deadly shore.

“Having a husband and a baby gave my life direction,” the 32-year-old told AFP as she scooped water into four grey drums to take to their brick and tin shanty that lacks tap water and electricity.
