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

the peace corsp experience was very rewarding for me and changed the path of my life. i only hope i gave back to the russian people what they gave to me. if i had it to do again, i would do a few things differently. however, overall it was amazingly wonderful and i highly recommend it to any who consider it.

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

helen wheeler.

Any message for returned volunteers?:

dont expect your old life to be waiting for you. you have just experienced a fullfilling life in a foreign country and those who were close to you befor may not understand what you went through. now is the next step on your path. draw from your inner strength that most likely helped you though some hard times in the country in which you served. a world of excitement awaits you. the withdrawal symptoms of ending your peace corps experience will pass. enjoy....
