When you travel in the mountains of northern Haiti, you will see people walking, walking, walking up and down the steep paths. Usually they carry heavy bundles on their heads. This woman has been down in the ravine to wash clothes in the river. It's a long way down, hard work once you get where you're going, and then a long way home. I think of this woman every time I pop my laundry into the washing machine at my place. I no longer take such luxury for granted.
