Dear RPCV colleagues,
Happy New Year! Good news - Peace Corps is hoping to open its doors again in Sri Lanka, and if/when an agreement is signed, the Embassy and Peace Corps would like to have some nice social media content to celebrate it.
If any of you have scanned photos from your time as a volunteer in Sri Lanka, please send the files along with short captions explaining what you were doing and your Peace Corp site. I would appreciate it very much. We will plan to use these photos in social media postings to celebrate 70 years of bilateral relations as well.
Best,
Nolen Johnson – TEFL RPCV – Mozambique 2003-2005

Hi Nolen
Can you give us an email contact to send the scanned photos of Sri Lanka volunteer work? I was there in 1962 and have some good ones I would love to share. Thanks
Carolyn Harry (nee Hanna).
