In the meantime, read this....
New post on its way shortly. In the mean time, I highly suggest you read this account from a volunteer who recently contracted HIV during her service. Really powerful reading. Read all of it. Seriously.

This is not really a blog about day-to-day life of a volunteer, although in some ways it is. Rather, these posts are meant to capture thoughts and ideas about development, especially in the context of Peru and the Peace Corps. Also scattered about are posts and advice to people thinking or preparing to serve in Peace Corps.
Disclaimer:
The views, opinions, words, and thoughts expressed in this blog are representative of the author and NOT of the US Peace Corps, or any other local/state/federal/world government or organization. In fact, this might not even be written by a Peace Corps volunteer but rather a 43 year old man a few weeks away from meeting Chris Hansen.
