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

I had strong desire to become a teacher after absolutely enjoying the teaching job in Botswana. So, I went back to college and got a second B.Sc. Degree and became employed as a secondary teacher. Althought,I did have industrial empolyment also after returing.

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

The biggest thought I have know is how the memories get covered up by the passage of time. When I first got back from Botswana all I could think of was returing becuase I loved the country and the people. However, I do have plenty of photograhs and journal entries to remember Botswana, and I meet people from Africa here in the USA.

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

I would like to know what the other volunteers in my group are doing. Because I have not kept up with all of them. And to know what my former students are doing.

Any message for returned volunteers?:

Yes, Contact me at my email address and send pictures.
