Bring us up to date on your life after the peace corps:

I am currently finishing my third year as a volunteer in East Timor. I came to Timor in June 2002 with a group of third year volunteers to open a new Peace Corps post in the newest country in the world.

Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:

I'll need some time to process all this after returning to the States before responding.

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

I would love to hear from anyone who has served in Cape Verde. I hope to be active in the RPCV Cape Verde community in the States.

Any message for returned volunteers?:

Forca e coragem, pa. Mim ta precisa tcheu conselho sobre vida na America quando mim volta p'ra la!
