Clothes unraveled by the Thai style washing machine - we lost count
We
recently had occasion to gather with fellow Peace Corps Volunteers from our
group. We will not tell you the "casualty count" of our friends,
instead we will share with you the faces of those who are still here two years
later. We have shared trainings, camps, stories and cultural adjustments together.
This has been a great adventure. We hope you have enjoyed reading our stories as much as we have enjoyed living and writing them. We look forward to seeing you all at home, and sharing our stories and photos in person.
Peace to you all.
