Playing

Life has gone on in Haiti but with few jobs you can find the men in front of a Barber Shop playing dominos or cards.

Nadine and I met a young man during our ride in a Taptap (aka $Dollar Van); he told us there is no work in Haiti and even if there were he couldn't apply for one because he didn't have an ID. He was 18 years old and doesn't have an ID.

He told us that he went to the ID office (the location was moved to a small building because the original building was destroyed) to apply but the line was too long; the day we spoke to him was his 2nd day on the line and he wasn't seen so he had planned to go the next day.
