During PST, each of us will live with a host family, begin intensive Thai language instruction, a...

Excited to serve in Peace Corps Thailand in 2014-2016. August 10, 2002. Welcome to Salas de los Infantes. I'm not sure how this will read because I've been up for about 34 hours if don't count the catnap I had on the plane. Ricardo was excited when the second movie started: K9 with Jim Balushi. After it finished, we both tried to get some sleep. Kind of different because of the cramped quarters. Not an hour went by when they turned up the lights to serve breakfast. Some community gathering was going on a...

http://jim-wandering.blogspot.com/2008/06/6708-vancouver-bc-canada.html
Excited to serve in Peace Corps Thailand in 2014-2016. June 7, 2008. 6/7/08 Vancouver, BC - Canada. Didn't really sleep at all last night. Went to bed but my mind kept double and triple checking everything I had done to get ready. Was up by 5am. Mom was great as I waited for the airport van to arrive at 6:30. She can be a rock of gibraltar, steady even in a storm. I hope she has a good summer, even with me gone. [smile]. I was kind of surprised that almost all the Canadian customs officials at arrival we...

http://jim-wandering.blogspot.com/2005/09/9205-tetouan-morocco.html
Excited to serve in Peace Corps Thailand in 2014-2016. September 2, 2005. Heading to the Casbah. Our Moroccan guide, Abdula, gave us a lot of info about his country and our trip. He said everyone told him he looks like Michael Douglas. So he'd answer to either Abdula or Michael. Driving through Morocco reminded me more of Kenya but the buildings are still very Spanish-looking. Lots of people walking and little vegetation. But the coast road was busy. 4th Year Teaching in Mongolia. Study Spanish in Spain.
