“This photo was taken on my last morning at my training site in Indonesia. I shared this magical sunrise with a friend from a nearby village. This photo serves as a reminder of the wonderful times I had there and of the possibilities that lie ahead.”
Happy National Pumpkin Day!
“In sharing American culture with my Indonesian students, I incorporated Halloween into one of my fall classes. The following weekend some students and I got together to make jack-o-lanterns. In East Java pumpkins are only used for soups and food, so though they knew a little about Halloween, the idea of carving pumpkins was still funny to them.”

No one likes to sit in a desk all day. I like to get my students moving by playing fun games like this vocab review game.
Living in a desa means biking over mountains, on bridges, through woods, and all over the place

For my school’s 15 yr anniversary, we did a Jalan Sehat (health walk) which is literally just walking around the village with all the students at 6AM. There are worst ways to spend my mornings than watching the sun rise with my favorite highschoolers. #jalansehat #pagipagi #walkingwalking #100happydays #17togo #intheteens! #peacecorps #peacecorpsindonesia
