Benin is a strange world, difficult to understand, is tough, strong, critical, it makes you live the experience of breast , forces you to grow quickly in the harshness of life. Only the strongest, most stubborn, the most convinced succeed in their aim. So either give up or touches become so.
Living in Benin is not easy, is not for everyone as in Italy. Here not everyone can go forward, here, around the corner streets are dark, dangerous or inaccessible. Barely see 20 meters ahead, everything else is dark, uncertain, scary at all.
In Benin few can make that leap to a daily food safety. Few can count on support of health, on a bed, or rather on a couch.
Nobody helps you, because no one has been helped.
have the system of the fittest, if you fight, survive. Pull out teeth and claws to climb this damn wall that is life.
I had a hard day, I felt tired and fatigued, I had heavy legs and arms, his head was telling me of hanging lie, but I was more, the more I felt weak. It was hot, the fan even gave me relief.

To them it was normal, as doctors deal with this, because they see Beninese pass dozens every day, and only those who can afford to spend € 2 and 30 cents. Most of the population uses the same amount to eat and drink for at least three days.
But I'm white, I do not have these problems, I have others, time for example.
hour wait towards the end I was up a bit 'of impatience, tension.
I called to find out the results. No response. It's been 75 minutes already, but in view of Benin, an hour can also be composed of 100 minutes. Recall. After several attempts, finally someone answered. Negative tell me. Thank and close. Notice Peter.
and from that moment that I feel better. Wow, I'm fine, I do not feel tired. Maybe it was just the heat, in fact it was a scorching heat.
