@mkecosplay5k.bsky.social@ryannorth.ca is doing such great work on #FantasticFour; it's cool that this #SwampThing story finally made it to print, but it sure makes me wonder what would have happened if it had been published back in 1989; a fictional story about real events, featuring a #PeaceCorps was interesting.
@wanderingtheworld.com🌴 Forget the packing rules. Carly's advice? Bring the flip-flops. 😄
She also recommends a headlamp, a portable fan, and Spanish books if you're headed to the Dominican Republic as a Peace Corps volunteer.
@wanderingtheworld.comDaniel teaches math and physics in rural #Kenya, but some of his biggest impact happens outside class. He helped create a science lab, started chess and coding clubs, and coaches volleyball. 🇰🇪📚

@wanderingtheworld.comSamuel’s #PeaceCorps service in #Togo took him from caring for chickens to teaching kindergarteners, working in fields, and playing soccer with local kids. 🐔📚⚽
His biggest lesson: stay flexible. Plans change. Learning opportunities don’t.

@wanderingtheworld.comOne year, Shay’s village in Nepal faced drought and water conservation concerns. The next, heavy rains brought erosion.
As an Environment volunteer, she’s learned to stay flexible and adapt her work to what her community needs. 🌱

@wanderingtheworld.comA typhoon destroyed Ashlin’s school ecobrick project in the #Philippines. Then students kept making ecobricks without being asked.
The final tally: 700+ ecobricks, 90 volunteers, and 4 benches. ♻️🇵🇭
A great lesson in what community ownership.
@wanderingtheworld.comOne of Walker Heard’s biggest #PeaceCorps lessons in #Tonga came from a water shortage. 💧
A village thought it needed pumps. Walker’s survey showed that leaking pipes were the problem.
Sometimes development starts with better questions—and better data.

@wanderingtheworld.comIn rural Albania, Isabelle teaches 13–16 classes a week, runs an English Club, coordinates WriteOn! #Albania, and is creating a Model EU Junior curriculum. 🇦🇱📚
@wanderingtheworld.com🏔️ Enrique’s #PeaceCorps service in North Macedonia included learning 2 languages, organizing a summer camp, and helping launch a shepherding cooperative’s 1st food market. His biggest lesson? “1 year is just a visit. 2 years is what turns a place into a home”
@wanderingtheworld.com🇬🇹 Peyton’s advice after serving as a #PeaceCorps #YouthDevelopment volunteer in #Guatemala: don’t be afraid to look a little silly in front of your students. That’s often when the best connections happen. ❤️
@wanderingtheworld.comBrendan serves in two Costa Rican schools, where his students often know him as the PE teacher. But his #YouthDevelopment work also includes life-skills workshops, youth clubs, and community service projects. ⚽🇨🇷
