A few days ago we were invited to help do some work in one of the local slums. We ended up replacing some tin roofing, cleaning up lots of trash, and rebuilding some support structures. It was a tiring, long day, but it felt so good to finish and to be spent.
The slums are built right on top of a wetland, right on top of water. Living in Stilted houses, everything goes into the water. In some places it's black like oil and in every place a pesky odor always finds its way into your nostrils. We scooped out bags full of trash and barely made a dent - it just keeps on coming.
Video footage to come....
