About Wanda
My name is Wanda; I’m a Haitian-Turks Islander who grew up in South Florida not having much knowledge of Haiti or my Haitian Culture. I am a full-time wife, marketing director, and blogger. I love to eat and try new food, travel and take pictures. In 2011 after researching and saving pictures and achieves of Haiti and our history, I decided to start this blog to teach and connect with other Haitian-Americans who grew up feeling disconnected from their Haitian culture or people who simply love Haiti and our colorful and vibrant culture.
