Pétion-Ville

We stayed overnight in Pétion-Ville, a town in the mountains up from Port-au-Prince. Our hotel, El Rancho, was a very nice accommodation, where ex-pats often stay. Just down the road are street vendors selling various metal artwork and Vodon religion icons (where I bought a few!). The trucks used for locals as taxis are called "Tap-Taps" - One was carrying passengers to a dinner, with their goats hanging upside down on the outside of the tap-tap - while alive...So it appears they prefer to ea...

Bienvenue en Haiti!

... kind where the tomatoes are stacked in pyramids. <br><br>Finally, we arrived at Le Ritz, the place I will call home for the next year. A &#8220;Bienvenue Suzanne!&#8221; sign hung on my front door, and I walked into a room that was sweet with the smell of fresh flowers. A massive bouquet sat inside a fruit basket on the side table next to my couch&#8212;fruit and flowers from the IDEJEN staff! My apartment is much larger than I had anticipated. I have plenty of space for ...

Mais qu&#8217;est-ce que la misère, au juste? Jusqu&#8217;ou ça peut aller? Combien de malheurs en même temps cela prend-il pour appeler une situation une situation miséreuse?

Amazing!!!

... were very small shack houses stacked up against each other in the most confusing and winding maze I have ever seen. People were everywhere and a lot of visible trash in the streets. After passing City Soleil, we pulled into Laurent's soap making business which was secure. We got a quick tour on how to make Haitian soap which was really unresting and not what I expected. We repacked our bags into a secure truck for the rest of ...

... much turkey meat because the lack of food for animals means they don't exactly plump up. The majority of Haitians and their animals are skinny. At night we watch a slide show of everyones pictures, ahhh, the wonders of a laptop. Upon going to bed we discover a cockroach, as usual, and a large moth (think the size of your hand). I kill the cockroach but we decide to ignore the moth. As soon as the lights go out the ...
