I married a lady from Spain and we have a little boy together, born in 2001. I moved to New Orleans, then evacuated from Katrina in 2005 to Philadelphia. In 2007 we moved back to DC, where I work for FEMA.
Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:
I miss the experience, and wish I had done things a lot differently.

Any RPCVs. I'm in touch with a couple of folks from the host country already.
Any message for returned volunteers?:
Keep going. Life becomes quite ordinary if you don't keep it up.
