I went in without expectation and was once again surprised..haha.
Haiti
The roads are paved but rubble and tent cities line the "streets". This will be short because I am exhausted...but we see the same things here as Africa. God I wish I could elaborate more but I've been working hard on no sleep. It's hot- dripping sweat hot- just the way I like it :). And the people are kind and look after their family members in a way that warms your heart. The medical care they receive is awful- in a way that will break your heart. And the culture is fun and happy... but there isn't a whole lot of smiling here unless you are the one to smile first. Such a polite culture- they'd never leave you hanging. So anyway... the conditions report: I live in the ballroom of a hotel on a mattress beneath a web of strings holding up mosquito nets. I eat soooo well- seriously. Fresh vegetables... yeah MREs for lunch but who cares... dinner is amazing. And per ususal- jerks don't do forgien aid- the people are awesome. At the end of the day I jump in the pool. To summarize: I work hard, I sleep hard, I rest hard- life is good.
