Gift shops in Haiti


Here’s a smattering of photos from the gift shops I’ve visited in Haiti, all were at a guest house or missions compound I stayed in: United Christians International in Caiman (can't find those pictures now), Haitian American Friendship Foundation 1 mile away in Bohoc, and the Matthew 25 House gift shop in Port au Prince.  The UCI shop served as my bedroom after the earthquake.  The Matt 25 shop is the most extensive and has some items of higher quality.  There’s also a lot of artists selling from the street – just be quick about what you want because you have to pull over in traffic!  And the National Agriculture fair on May 1 had lots of art.
