Visit to Cite Soleil

I was lucky enough to visit the home of one of our best workers, and a good friend, Junior Lerolien. His family lives in Cite Soleil, which is regarded as the largest slum in the Western hemisphere, and the most dangerous place in Haiti. We, however, were treated like kings. In addition to enjoying some amazing fried fish and plantains, we toured Cite Soleil and managed to make plenty of friends along the way.









To keep the experience authentic, we left in a "tap-tap", which is the common mode of public transportation in Haiti. It is basically a pickup truck with two benches and a roof on the bed.
