old faces in new places

Yesterday we got to spend some time with our friend, Brenna. She and I were roommates my junior year of college, back in 2009, and we also took our first trip to Haiti together in 2010. She is currently a student at The New School in New York, and is visiting Haiti for the next two weeks to gather research for her thesis in order to graduate next May. Her and her friend are staying at Pacot Breeze, a nice hotel located in Pacot, with a gorgeous view of downtown Port-au-Prince and of the ocean (pictured above). It was nice to spend some time with someone with whom we share a little history, as every relationship here is so new and unexplored.

Andrew just texted me, informing me that he is eating food from a street vendor in Pacot, hanging and talking with Haitians-- so don't worry, we are building our Hatiain relationships, too ;)
