At times, the diversity of the international peacekeeping force here in Port-au-Prince can be overwhelming. While mostly consisting of Brazilian, Jordanian, Chilean, and Argentine forces, there are small contingents from every country imaginable.
I was lucky enough to meet some Colombian soldiers that operate a small, basic hospital here. They were in need of supplies, and we were happy to oblige. Unfortunately I never made it to their base to enjoy a nice "sancocho", but took full advantage of the opportunity to practice Spanish!
