Another walkthrough of Deschapelles but with a Native

Luke Nelson July 11, 2016

Because our housekeeper heard about our interests in exploring Deschapelles, she decided to take us to this new plaza that opened up near-by called “The Fantasy.” She said it’s a plaza that has a movie theater, beauty salon, barbershop, and a restaurant. When I translated for the housekeeper, everyone seemed interested but quite skeptical. They kept asking “Where is she taking us again,” hoping that the description of the place I kept saying would change. I believed that this place could exist. The members of this community need a place like this. Ms. Rosaline, our housekeeper smiled and waved at everyone in the community as we strolled through the community. When we arrived to the place, it felt like a palace. Although, it was still being built, it was complete. At this point, this entire place needed was the finishing touches! We ate popcorn and toured the place! Check out some photos below. IMG_0250
