Making a living in Haiti!

In Haiti there are many different ways to make a living.  Wherever you look you can find people working at all kinds of trades.  Some people in Haiti are very resourceful and work hard to provide for their families.  While driving throughout the city we see many people finding one thing or another to do to make ends meet.
