Bring us up to date on your life after the peace corps:
Much too much has happened in the past 30-odd years to put down here. Now living in Western Australia.
Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:
It represented one of the best sides of American life abroad, and delivered more useful help and goodwill than many more sophisticated and more expensive programs. If we had more PCVs we'd need fewer soldiers.

Tim Miner, Jack and Charleine Sell
Any message for returned volunteers?:
Swaziland and Botswana RPCVs from the early and mid 70s may be saddened to hear of the death of Ruthanne Horning on Jan 26 in California.
