I live in a world built for shorter people.While at 6' 2" I may be a bit above average height in the United States, here in El Salvador I am a freakishly tall giant.
Some examples:
- This picture is of a door way in our newly constructed house. It is one of several in the house that have inflicted damage on my un-ducked head
- I went to a store to buy a desk for my office and could not find one tall enough to fit my knees under
- While driving a friend's pickup truck at night, I had to duck down to have a view of the road that was not made pitch black by the narrow strip of dark tinting across the top of the windshield
- I have to stoop over to wash dishes in our kitchen sink or to prepare food on the counter top. (Are there any chiropractors in Gotera, El Salvador???)
