I’ve been back in the States for about two weeks now — sorry for the gap in posts (again!), but I’ve been busy decompressing, processing my experiences, and enjoying the comforts of the developed world that I’d previously taken for granted.
It’s been nearly two months since I returned to Haiti, and I leave for the States in two days…
I’m involved in a longish project right now — building a school for orphans at a site about 30 minutes away from our base here in Leogane.
Ahhhhhhh … spent Monday through Wednesday decompressing! It’d been a month since I returned, and HODR mandates that all volunteers leave base for three days after 30 days of work.
An interesting past week. I spent a few days working with a demolition crew — basically, the demo team goes to partially intact homes & structures that are too dangerous for habitation or for a rubble team.
Catch up with what breadpig legionnaire, Geoff Yenson, has been up to lately in Haiti.
We had an intense bout with Mother Nature last night! Around 5PM (Sunday), the clouds started rolling in and a raging thunderstorm followed shortly after…
The goal here is simple: clear out an area on the property that is suitable for construction of a new abode.
Breadpig has a volunteer in Leogane, Haiti who’ll be reporting for the next two months. Follow along. There’s still a lot of work to be done in Haiti.
