8 months later

Back in Haiti yet again, fourth time this year. Met a fellow relief and development worker in the Miami airport and we commiserated about the fact that not much has changed in the long term. The relief effort after the earthquake has for sure relieved suffering, but if you think about the fact that we are all just trying to get the country back to the same level as before, one can really start to get down about it. Which is where I found myself at in the conversation in Miami. It was good though to have such a candid conversation with someone who knows the deal, and shares the same concerns.

In any case, I'll be blogging as much as possible for the next month. I'll try not to make it too depressing.
