Today was my first trip to the field, we went to Les Cayes, a
town on the south of PAP. The landscape is similar to the one you
can find in areas of north of Colombia such as Cordoba or Sucre. Getting
out of PAP is a nightmare, there is so much traffic, so
disorganized plus the fact streets are in a really bad shape. On the
way of PAP, we passed by like the central area, it's really caotic and
extremely dirty. I think it's not surprising that
epidemies such as colera appear quite frequently. There is no a
proper system of garbage collection, nor of a sewer system. Once we took
the road, things changed. Roads were in a much better
shape and there was no so much garbage around.
Regarding food I must say so far I haven't had something
particularly different. I've been on the patacones (eg banane frite) and
papaya regimen, as I have them everyday!!. The rice is basic in
any meal and is really good. They put a lot of onions and peper to
the meals, which give them a really good taste. The national beer is
called Prestige and is good. They also eat a lot of
"cabrit", though I haven't tasted it yet.
