Days Haitians come to an end.
parts only with a few answers to classic questions of when the plane before landing in a new destination.
How can it be? It was very intense 10 days, 10 days in which to see first hand the many concrete images, feels even more immune to a run of events that makes you feel really here to play at a time when the scale can tip suddenly from a side or the other, where the paths to follow for the reconstruction are numerous, but few will really benefit the people, if that first lived on average two dollars a day, now often do not even have those. And in global decisions have no voice.
What will happen? Especially in cases like these, the mind is wide open to absorb everything and take chances on the fly. There was not much to set up what I would do, the days were created from dawn to dusk without too organize future ones. So often the occasions they came out of nothing, other times I have found to spend a day frantically stops, while thinking about everything that I was missing, but coming in the evening where the benefits of a chaotic day you did not feel well for Starting in the grim days later.
Who will I meet? And this is the most difficult question to answer, because I have not made a clear idea of \u200b\u200bhow it is really the people. This is because it is a very special moment in their history, even and especially when speaking of human relationships. The same Haitians if in some ways a great rediscover solidarity, others fight every day for a better state, prices have risen for us in the West that for them, and often there are fights about this. I think it's normal not be able to interact as I wanted, both for the language is because at this time to have white skin can lead to misunderstandings and difficulties, however, from various points of view. This morning I am having programs made a trip alone to Petion Ville. Son had to go back on my feet soon, only one is really hard to get around, let alone pull out my camera. And you immediately notice the difference from walking along with a Haitian, or in general to a man. Unfortunately
focusing on what just happened, I did not much Related to the culture here, because it is a moment of stand-by, also dragged down by the earthquake. And by the will of the government is organizing a month of national mourning. I do not think much of being in agreement with the fact that expressions such as music and more to be shallow at this time, indeed, in many cases would help an aggregation and sharing. Artistic events are cleared, the much famous painters here are taking a break, often devoid of inspiration, many other time to pause if they're taking the other side of the Gulf of Florida, Miami, New York .. . It is a situation rather static, it is thought to a future of reconstruction but for now we still have to clean all the tangled streets of the city from the heaps of rubble, you often still find an accommodation for many hospitals, to make a more dignified life for people living in tent cities without bathrooms and any minimum hygienic condition, you throw away heaps of garbage that with this putrefaggono sun in a few hours, repairing roads, whether the government has intended to resume the reins of the game ...
The thing I most regret in 'get out of here is that with the departure leaves the possibility to stay informed about what is happening, seeing the current climate in international journals. Luckily Internet is a great source in this and in some ways updates can be found in local newspapers.
