This is the Petionville Golf Course before the earthquake on the left, and after the earthquake on the right.
I'm staying in the neighbourhood of Delmas 40B, which is one block from the largest camp in Port-au-Prince Camp Golf where right after the earthquake, people just started setting up shelters on the private golf course. 60 000 people have settled in, set up shops in front of their tent or in their tent.
Most interesting are the beauty shops since they are run by young women, and they provide the not-necessary-for-life hair cuts/extensions/wash and set as well as manicures and pedicures. Many set up right after the earthquake and are struggling with a 3x higher price in supplies and a clientele that has little money. And in the four hours it takes to do extensions, they share a lot of info on birth control, safe sex and sexually transmitted diseases. June's salon now has a box of "Huge" condoms (really, that's what they're called) to hand out to customers, courtesy of an American NGO of course...
