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

A true adventure that I lucked into and one that left a lasting mark on my life. Everyday was an adventure, made contributions that positively affected people's lives in Tanzania and developed a positive work ethic that enabled me to see the "big picture" and truly rejoice in what we have no matter how small or trivial.

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

All RPCV from Tanzania, especially:
Chris Mariani, Kevin Lombard, Shanon Whitney, John Gunn, Steve Bell, Mike Prachia and everyone that was in the PC mission to Tanzania from 1991-1995.

Any message for returned volunteers?:

Continue to bridge the gap between cultures to enhance understanding of devlopment issues and similarities among peoples of the world. Build on those experiences you had overseas to enrich the lives of people in your community.
