Hey man, Greetings from Fazed. I hope everything is going well for you. There's another Peace Corps thread going on right now, which made me wonder how your stint is going. By the way, I like the pictures you've taken!
i am on my second year in the peacecorps and i honestly feel you have the most unauthentic experience compared to the majority of my colleagues. rather than relish in the novelty of the philanthropy, why don't you reflect on the disparity among countries and actually get your hands dirty and live the true life that our people must endure? your writings are unbearablyl sophomoric and I pray to whatever god(s) you place your faith with to open your heart.
It amuses me that somehow living in a city like millions of other people do in this country makes my experience an 'unauthentic' one, since obviously, the people living in cities aren't living an authentic lifestyle unless they're living on a farm.
I don't choose my site, Peace Corps did. I was fully prepared to teach a secondary school in a village somewhere, but they decided I belong in a University, and universities being universities, makes them in cities.
