... c'était beau, c'était fourni, et on savait à quoi s'en tenir », qu'on entend. On se fait raconter des récits de grandes rues propres et riches, boutiques et terrasses, grands marchés, des importations des grands pays en abondance, tout insouciant de leur sécurité.

· On entend aussi que depuis quelques années, la sécurité s'est améliorée. Les expats le disent, les voyageurs qui connaissent le pays depuis un ...

On l’a ditsouvent, les vietnamiens sont pas les champions de l’abstraction. On donne dansla pensée plus concrète, dans laquelle ils excellent, d’ailleurs.

... Haitians come out and watch us try to navigate. They are rightfully laughing hysterically at us as they do this daily! Eventually they take pity and help some of our group down. Then they volunteer to clean our muddy shoes. Their kindness knows no boundaries!

Father Reginald is the new priest at St. Pierre. He graciously offers up his home to us. We have solar electricity, flush toilets, and a refrigerator. This is ...

... and all that happened was an exchange between a dying empire and an emerging one.

Whether it’s Fanon, a man in an archive, on the street, etc., there is always something to learn. The first paragraph I wrote is a simplified version of my perspective. While I can enjoy the sound of the rain, the daily storms wash garbage and top soil out to the ocean. In Gonaives the rain refills the lake that formed after 4 hurricanes ...

... s no shortage of people going to Haïti. Although Spirit Air isn't the most luxurious airline (by a long shot), they know how to keep passengers alive and on schedule. Thanks to a bright orange Jagermeister lei, I retrieved my dufflebag without any problems at the luggage carrousel. The other members of my family with plain black suitcases had a tougher time. The outside of Ma ...

... van we pile. It's around 12:30 now. Dave drives. Thank God, he doesn't need sleep! Poor Tim has serious stomach issues, we give him the front seat. We all handle it pretty well after all it is what it is. I'm very sad not to see my family at the airport in GR. We hit a McDonalds on the way home. Not exactly my idea of a first meal but it'll do. The drive goes suprisingly fast. Tim gets ...

... willing to let me ride his donkey. It's a lot of fun. You do not see many Haitians riding donkeys, most use them to care items. Now I know why, the saddle is made of wood, OUCH! All the girls take a turn. My other goal was to catch a chicken, I've tried to several times. Unfortunately Haitian chickens are very skinny and very fast. Bill and the boys spend a lot of time today explaining to the people how everything we've ...

... playing a game of Chicken, I can't wait to get out of the city. But we must stop again, Chris' truck has a leak in the gas tank. We sit at a gas station waiting for over an hour for Hertz to bring a replacement. There is a considerable zap of energy. Sitting on hot curb, with my tush frying like an egg is not what I envisioned. We're off again, I think. The ride up the mountain is incredible (53 miles takes six hours). It is like ...

... Carice. LAS MISIONES OBLATAS EN EL NORESTE Ouanaminte es una ciudad comercial, en la frontera con Dajabón, República Dominicana. Me da la impresión de que muchas vocaciones oblatas han salido de Ouanaminthe. Ubicada en las montañas, Capotille también es una comunidad fronteriza - tan es así que el pueblo vecino se llama EL CAPOTILLO. Más hacia el sur, pero a mayor altitud está Mont Organisé. Y siguiendo el accidentado camino llega uno a Carice ...

... en creol. Y hoy, 12 de diciembre, prediqué en francés para la fiesta de Notre Dame de Guadalupe. Predicar en francés y en creol son dos retos distintos: el segundo de mayor urgencia e importancia que el primero. Y tampoco es lo mismo predicar una homilía en martes que en domingo. LIBROS ¿Ya leyeron The Holy Longing de Ron Rolheiser? Esta pregunta es sobre todo exhortativa: finalmente lo puedo recomendar después de haberlo leído, y lo recomiendo con ...
