📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

Haiti, located on the western part of Hispaniola, is a Caribbean nation with a profound culture rooted in successful slave revolts. Visitors should approach the country with patience and respect for its post-colonial culture.

Dress modestly in cities (especially women). Learn basic Haitian Creole phrases. Always request permission before photographing people and avoid documenting poverty or waste. Treat locals with respect, patience, and as equals. Avoid giving money or candy, as this can compromise human dignity. Carry extra food and water to share with guides or drivers.
