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

I reentered American life and immediately started teaching in Baltimore
City Schools. Needless to say, I left as soon as the year was over. I have
moved to a very small town in Warrenton, NC and am loving it. It feels like
I'm back in the village again! I teach Kindergarten here. Hopefully, I am
here to stay for a while.

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

I have too many to write in such a short space. What a dramatic impact my
West African experience has made on my life! I'm still discovering ways the
people and places touched my life. I'd like to do it again when I retire!
