Mis Aventuras/My Adventures: Oh France, how I miss thee...
http://misaventurasaroundtheworld.blogspot.com/2011/09/oh-france-how-i-miss-thee.html
Monday, September 12, 2011. Oh France, how I miss thee. Lotto for 12 year olds? 8221; Finally, I remember buying my first thing in France, it was a bag of chips; I was excited because I was so hungry. I love cheese so of course I went for what I thought were cheese doodles. Let’s just say I thought wrong! They were peanut butter puffs and although I love peanut butter, these were so nasty. I ended up going to bed hungry because I was too shy to ask my host mom for food on the first day. The Spice Market ...

Mis Aventuras/My Adventures: Dear MAATW
http://misaventurasaroundtheworld.blogspot.com/2011/08/dear-maatw.html
Wednesday, August 24, 2011. Dear Mis Aventuras Around the World and Followers,. I have to confess that I have abandoned you because I am currently in an affair with this site called MissRizos.com. Remember how I use to write about my hair experiences here? How I had to create Dominicana Going Natural and Cabello Bueno because this blog was becoming too much about hair. Well this time I went all the way, yes all the way. Yes, like I said, I am super excited! Well folks, I promise I will try to come back h...

When I say Krik? You say Krak!: November 2010
http://mimienayiti.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
When I say Krik? Monday, November 8, 2010. Rolando and the Hardware Adventure. Saturday October 23, 2010. A few days ago I had a bad day. I had a whole entry written about everything that was wrong…mostly things related to homesickness, sleeping by myself in a concrete box (I really miss Oscar), and about being alone as an American woman in Haiti. But it just isn’t good to harp on the negative, so I’ve let that day go along with the post. I had no idea where I was. What would I do? We got back in the car...

When I say Krik? You say Krak!: February 2011
http://mimienayiti.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
When I say Krik? Saturday, February 12, 2011. I live in Haiti! Just having one of those days, looking out over my desk onto the courtyard at work, thinking "Holy cow, I live in Haiti. How did I get here again? Why am I here? I can't. They mean too much to me to leave. I don't really know if I am making that much of an impact on their lives, but I am certain that they have already changed mine forever. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). And when people want to hear said story, they respond "Krak!

When I say Krik? You say Krak!: Bon Ane! Happy New Year!
http://mimienayiti.blogspot.com/2012/01/bon-ane-happy-new-year.html
When I say Krik? Thursday, January 12, 2012. The hard work paid off in a congratulatory and satisfied compliment from my directors. SCORE! I want those cool, white pants, man…. I am currently back in PAP (Port-au-Prince) after a 2-week winter vacation in California. When I left, I felt so sad to leave Haiti. I didn’t want to go. I wasn’t ready to leave Ayiti Cheri. Mwen te sezi vre. There is a lot of history there. I grew up in those mountains. Was it just nostalgia? I still don’t know, but not a s...

When I say Krik? You say Krak!: It's like thunder! Lightnin'! The way you love me is frightenin'!
http://mimienayiti.blogspot.com/2011/05/its-like-thunder-lightnin-way-you-love.html
When I say Krik? Tuesday, May 24, 2011. The way you love me is frightenin'! It's been almost 4 months since I last wrote, and I know that all of you out there are aching for me to write. Instead of trying to catch you up, I'm just going to continue from this point forward. Maybe I'll make some "looking back" posts, but judging by my current blogging statistics, it's unlikely. Anywho. The floods carry all the mud and trash that people throw in the street, too. Once the water level settles, banks of said m...

http://mimienayiti.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
When I say Krik? Monday, May 30, 2011. Mr Big Stuff, who do you think you are? Yes, I am currently on a Jean Knight kick, but rest assured that the song and title of this blog post couldn't be more perfect. Just keep reading! The other night I decided to stay at the office through the rain to get some extra work done and putz around on the internet while I had the chance. A student, Richard, was willing to stay and escort me home. He responds (in Creole, but I've translated it), "Why are you walking?

When I say Krik? For those of you wanting more information on Haiti, its history, and its culture, I've posted links to some helpful websites. Peruse them at your will.

A good resource for pictures, maps, and links to other articles. Haitian Arts and Culture Network. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Chocolate War: ...
