The purpose of this blog.

A Re-Cap -

When I started this blog a few months ago, my intention was to write about my seven day trip to Haiti that I would be embarking on with some amazing women from Colorado including my sister, Angel.  Their goal was to share their "gently, worn shoes" that had been collected with Soles for Souls with the children of Haiit as well as beautiful hand made clothes and lovingly created home made baby dolls. My personal goal was to see what types of technology existed for children and then go back home to Florida, write about it and possibly use the information for preliminary dissertation work. Well, once again, God works in mysterious ways, because in less than two months, I find myself back here in Haiti for a one year committment (maybe even longer) as Director of Technology at a private school just outside Port-au-Prince; and I couldn't be happier.(Although I am already missing a few very important people in my life - but it's only a year, right?)

So, for the next "year", this blog will cover my experiences - good and bad, in Haiti.  I will talk about the people that I meet, the children that I will be working with and the culture of this beautiful country and I will not forget the reason that I visited here a month ago, which was (and still is) to try to understand how children on one side of the country can have access to a great education and "state of the art" technology while in other parts of Haiti, children don't even have a pair of shoes let alone, a computer. My goal is to see how I can help change that.
