It has been a December to remember! The season has been wonderfully busy! Oti and I spent a few days feeling pretty chilly and being under blankets before the weather went back to requiring fans. I love that even to take out the trash I have beautiful views! This country and its beauty never ceases to amaze me. Also, I made my first attempt at cheesecake for Christmas! It was a delicious passionfruit cheesecake shared with friends at a small gathering.




Sabina graduated!!! Well, Sabina graduated last year but due to different things happening in the country, she wasn’t able to have the ceremony until this year. She got a degree in Business Administration and Management from AUC. This girl works so hard at all she does, spreads smiles all around, is SUPER smart, and is kind to all she meets. I am so proud of her and thankful to know her! It was a pleasure to celebrate her.



We had some fun visitors this month. Of course, visitors always mean eating together. Thankful for these relationships and how Haiti has brought us all together.







A day at the island with good friends. It is crazy to see how much has changed over the last few years. The earthquake changed so much of this island and even since then I see such a different, the island is getting smaller. They are working very hard on cleaning out around the fort and trying to make it more of a tourist attraction. If you ever have the chance, you should visit! The history is cool and it’s also just gorgeous out there.


Ended the month (and year) with a beautiful wedding of a coworker. (I didn’t take photos of the bride and groom.) Now we are anxiously awaiting 2024 to see all that it will bring.
