These are my people. Those nights filled with laughter, dancing, cake, and a beautiful mixture of French, English, and Creole. Thank you for loving me and making me feel like I belong.

And some days are just great. And you forget the stress, insecurities, and trials that come with living abroad. Its the days where you eat conch by the sea, visit friends, laugh with your brothers and sisters, write a proposal for a new and exciting partnership, watch your husband play soccer and smile because he looks so happy, and get told 3 times by different locals that you speak creole like a boss. Its the days where you feel all the love around you and you think okay I can do this. #Haiti #thisishaiti #expatlife #mountains (at Jacmel City)

When people keep saying Jaci stop eating off the streets but the street merchants make the best food. And they show up at your gate cause they know you are weak 😩 #painpatate #thisishaiti #thestuggle

I made the sand a boundary for the sea, an everlasting barrier in cannot cross. The waves may roll but they cannot prevail; they may roar, but they cannot cross it. Jeremiah 5:22

When one of your closest friends from University comes for a visit and you feel like you have a bit of home with you. Love you Tobi! (at La Reference - Jacmel)

I have grown awfully attached to this four legged ball of love. Afternoons with my Bella.

I want to be the last person who ever kisses you… That sounds bad, like a death threat or something. What I’m trying to say is, you’re it. This is it for me.
