The team and I are trying to get acclimated to the climate and culture here. - I took a nap today and arose multiple times to a pool of water resting on my eyelids.
- I have accumulated almost 20 visibal bug bites.
- Our house constantly has random people coming in and out at all times of the day.
- I worked out today running back and forth in the compound and using a jump rope all the while 7 year Peleg mimicked my every move.
- I sat outside (in the shade) studying creole learning gangster phrases like “pouze boss” from the local Haitian teenagers to the background music of a local choir practicing songs for church sunday.
- I stood on our roof looking out over the mountains set against the pink sky and golden horizon.
Life is simple here. My skin glistens. I feel at peace. God is good.
