| What we have here are a few pages describing my service as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mauritania, West Africa (1996-98.) I wish I could include every adventure and emotion that I experienced in those two years, but I would need a much larger website. So, this is the shorthand version. Not to worry-- I didn't leave out anything important. |
| How it started, what's a Mauritania, what have I gotten myself into, and what's that on my plate? |
| How I lived, communicated, spent my time, and tried not to weep over the thought of a Big Mac. |
| The projects that kept me occupied, motivated, frustrated, and often discombobulated. |
| Some incredible journeys across West Africa. If it wasn't for the photos I swear I'd be lying. |
| My thoughts on the whole experience, some advice, valuable links for future PCVs, what it means to be a returned PCV, and who let the dogs out. |
| Asalaam walekum. If you're considering joining Peace Corps, have already served, or just want to laugh at my dopey photos, you might just find this site useful. Well, entertaining anyway. |
