My Peace Corps experience in Guyana, South America. A Day in the Peace Corps Life. July 2, 2015. July 5, 2015. I wakeup in the mornings to roosters crowing and usually Reggae, Celine Dion, rap, or Christian Gospel music peeping through my windows from nearby neighbors. I complete my 25 minute walk to school through the village with other students. I prepare the classroom and greet students. 8:30 AM- 2:30 PM-. During the school year, I stay after to sort and document books, or prepare the library in one w...

Closer to the Equator- June 2015 – kayleepcv

My Peace Corps experience in Guyana, South America. Closer to the Equator- June 2015. June 9, 2015. July 5, 2015. Closer to the equator,. More sunshine is absorbed. So leave the world you know. For something new to explore. For what lies beneath the comfort zone. In search for purpose. In search for change. A mystery, exposure, the nomadic life. Leave the what if’s and buts behind. Grab your sweet faith and go. Closer to the equator,. More sunshine is absorbed. Closer to the equator,. The less traveled,.

A Life Worth Chasing. Category Archives: From Me. May 5, 2016. Whoa Two months from now my Peace Corps service will be over. Where have two years gone? P) Then again, some of the experience has resonated with me, and will surely impact the direction my life goes from here. Speaking of uncertainty, my immediate family has survived another type of crisis of their own since my last update! They were shaken up, displaced, and have since moved to a new city in Ecuador. You can check out the experience thr...

Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana: New Years
http://timsguyana.blogspot.com/2015/01/new-years.html
Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana. Wednesday, January 28, 2015. I left for Suriname on the 28. Most people left to continue the party at Jackie’s house. Andrew, Kelly, Jerrell, Ashley, Miriam, Eben, Naomi, and I all stayed behind. Some of us started slinging our hammocks since we planned on sleeping outside. Normally, since the average temperature at night is in the high 70s, this wouldn't be an issue. I’ll return to this in a second. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Last Days in Mabaruma.

Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana. Thursday, October 2, 2014. Good morning everyone. It’s 5:30AM Guyana time, do you know where Tim is? He’s sitting in front of his computer with barely working internet checking Oregonlive for Beaver news. Sipping a cup of coffee. Relaxing in the early morning stillness punctuated by the god damn annoying cries of the local roosters. Nearby, a small bottle of mosquito repellent taunts him. It says, “Hey, put me on! Hi everybody, kind of a lot to talk about today.

http://timsguyana.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana. Monday, June 29, 2015. Well, I made it. It wasn’t easy. Hard might even be an overstatement. But I made it nonetheless. It started in Georgetown and after losing two compatriots to illness, another two to a faster route which left me, this new Guy 27, Kristen and her counterpart Andrea. This being the first time any of us had met each other, conversation was sparse to say the least. That being said it was still an interesting journey. Wednesday, June 17, 2015. Phew, ...

Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana: July 2015
http://timsguyana.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana. Friday, July 10, 2015. Welcome to Kwakwani Pt. 2. Well, I spent a week in Kwakwani. It was an experience. After the walk, it was about 2 in the afternoon. We went to The Sycamore, a bar built next to a Sycamore tree, and had a few Banks beers. The music was Guyanese, ear splittingly loud and drowning out conversation, the sun was hot and the drinks were cold. A perfect South American afternoon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana: September 2014

Tim, Peace Corps Volunteer in Guyana. Monday, September 15, 2014. Living That Guyana Life. Well, its day 3 without running water and only intermittent, unreliable power. I was going to take to Facebook and verbalize my woes a little but then I realized: there are people, some of them very near me and some I know who don’t have water or power at all. I got water last night! When I first got there I felt a little out of place. I don’t really know Iris that well and I wasn’t sure what to do&...My mom taught...
