So who's had sex?At the Portmore Youth Information Centre, I saw one of the most charismatic youth workers I have ever seen, Tanya. She opened our workshop in this small cabin with sexual nursery rhymes she had learnt at four (Little Nicky having sex with this man and getting pregnant).
The next question hit us all hard, “So who's had sex?” The look on all of the youth adviser's faces was worth a picture. At first we all seemed to feel slightly uncomfortable with this real openness in the way she spoke about sex. She immediately made us feel quite comfortable.

Interviewing HIV-positive young people in JamaicaThis is Eshe interviewing an HIV-positive young person in Jamaica.
The best part of the day, by far, was my interview with Timmy Reed, a phenomenal HIV positive twelve year old boy. His story and energy were inspirational and he even gave me a present as I left. I really was close to tears. He had only recently found out his status, but was so positive about life.
One thing I've learnt is that; no day here is going to be the same and they make me feel embarrassed for ever thinking HIV was the end of life.
