Barisol {2}

The second day in Barisol we visited two more projects: Keya Palm and Biborton Paper. These women are very skilled, its so impressive to watch them work. And once again, they were pleading for orders. I didn't come with the intention to help them find jobs, but now I want to do what I can for them - so, if you or anyone you know is interested in ordering fair trade products...
