I’m up to 65 countries and Yemen is the only one on the Arabian Peninsula I have not been to. But from my limited list Haiti is the top worst place on Earth. Besides the horrendous poverty (I’ve seen nothing like it anywhere else from India to the favelas in Sao Paulo), Port au Prince just felt oppressively evil. Positively Satanic evil

My experience was the Yemeni were viewed by the other arabs as beneath contempt.

In the South Central, the few I got to know were hard working and a level of poverty I cannot adequately describe.

A local village of more than a 1,000 people had electricity for lights in only three buildings. The store that paid for the little generator, the government building and the school. The same generator was used to power the one water pump the village used to irrigate fields of crops from the river.

While we loved our time in Haiti and PAP...it is a nightmare to live there...and we were there before the place went completely upsidedown politically and long before the earthquake.
