I left peace corps a year early and was married in 2002 to Aaron Leventhal. I worked for the past 3 years for an international adoption agency placing children from Russia and Kazakstan. We just had a baby girl, Ari Simone Leventhal, on November 28, 2004. I am currently home raising my daughter.

I can't believe its all so long ago. It seems just like yesterday I was on a train from site to Almaty to visit other volunteers. I love remembering this experience and still keep in touch with a few people there.

Anyone you are looking for or would like to hear from?:

Yes, I would like to hear from Jenny Lyons and Gwyneth and actually anyone from Kaz 8. I think I remember everyone.
