Haiti up there
Tuesday 30 March 2010

I needed to escape from this tiring job and restless city.
So I put up my boots, my waterproof jacket and my motorbike, and I went up to the mountains.
The cool, quiet and healing mountains.
Strangely reminding me of Ireland with its puddles and fog.
In the evening, as I sit by the fireplace, I realise that since January 12th, I’ve never felt so close to this country and these people.
In spite of mourning, chaos and tiredness, I am living an amazing human experience and I learn so much.
And I feel very lucky.
Thank you Haiti.
