1978: Jude Waechter Lobe served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Philippines in Sta. Maria, Ilocus Sur beginning in 1978
Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Jude Waechter Lobe can be contacted at artajudelobedcom
Country of Service: Philippines
Training Group: SFIG
Cities you served in: Sta. Maria, Ilocus Sur
Arrival Year: 1978
Departure Year: 1980
Work Description:
Began work with the Rural Bank, but ended up working with the Planning Board doing feasibility studies and developing cottage industries.
Bring us up to date on your life after the peace corps:
My daughter just joined PC and is in Benin. It's brought back memories and made me think of reconnecting. I am a professional artist and graphic designer.
Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:
With a daughter in PC in Benin calling me by cell phone, I would say, it's a very different experience. I always thought it should be a requirement for kids in the US to work & live overseas. That experience may help us actually make this a better world, when we all understand each other a little better.
