After finishing my tour in 1996, Oleg and I moved back to Wisconsin and stayed their for 5 years while Oleg finished his degree. After he graduated we both joined the Peace Corps and happened to get sent back to Ukraine. We only stayed a year this time. We moved back to Wisconsin again and had two children (Max age 3 and Sophia age 2). In 2006 we moved to Washington, DC.

I don't miss the cold, but I do miss my fellow volunteers.

I would love to hear from anyone. I have lost contact with several people. Anyone living in the DC area? Pevo Bob what are you up to lately?
