Safe and Sound
I've received many messages and emails about safety after the State Department's latest warnings about travel to Haiti. It's true, Port-au-Prince is very volatile right now. Yesterday someone started a fire in the market, and there were fatalities. I, however, am in Jeremie, which is far from PaP (upwards of 8 hours by automobile), and quite isolated. Most travel to and from PaP occurs by plane because the roads are so bad. Jeremie is very quiet, and Dame Marie, where I will be for two weeks starting tomorrow, is even quieter. As for day to day safety, I am well taken care of here. There is always someone making sure I have everything I need.

You are still fortunate and one of the lucky ones who get to travel around the world like you do. I am glad to hear that you are safe and enjoying what you are doing right now.
Hey, I haven't read the blog as thoroughly as I want to, but I'm glad to hear that you're doing well. Hearing about your life in the countryside makes me wish I were somewhere more interesting than an NGO office in DC!
