After a five year hiatus, I decided to make a short visit to Haiti, two weeks ago. The purpose of this recent trip was not for our usual medical mission trips, but rather for an exploratory venture. I must say that every second that I spent there was time well spent. It was so refreshing to sit back, relax, and enjoy some of the hidden gems in Haiti that I’ve been missing for a while.
I visited several places, including Port-au-Prince, Cotes-de-Fer, Aquin, and of course my beloved hometown, Zanglais. I enjoyed so many precious moments with my mom, my very talented cousins/second cousins, aunts and uncles, new found friends, local business owners, and nature.
Day 1
I arrived in Port-au-Prince and my mom picked me up from the airport. Mom lives in the US, but she loves to spend months at a time in Haiti. I guess I get my love for country from her. Both of us were very excited to see one another. She hugged me ever so tight and told me how happy she was that I came to visit.
