There are many ways to learn about the local culture as a Peace Corps volunteer, but often the best lessons happen by accident rather than by design. In this episode we hear two stories out of the Ukraine, from Victoria Walker and Allison Miller, who made strong impressions on the locals, but maybe not for the reasons they would have chosen.
Shawna Miller finds much more than love when the circus comes to her little Honduran town.
Pets and animals tend to play outsize roles for Peace Corps Volunteers. As companions who, like us, don’t speak the local language, they can make the experience a lot easier. For Helen Alesbury, her dog was at the center of one of her most memorable moments in her time in El Salvador.
At some point, every volunteer finds themselves too far from a bathroom at the time they need it most. For Denver Governor, that moment turned out to be one of the most important.
Bob Nolan considers what “justice” means when confronting one of his students and friends in Zimbabwe.
