Primul an s-a terminat

Exactly one year ago today, a group of strangers met in a basement conference room in the Sheraton Hotel in Philadelphia. Since then, Peace Corps Moldova 16 has lost a few people and gained a few Uzbek PC refugees, but we're still together. Peace Corps volunteers are reputed to be a bunch of pot-smoking liberals in their mid-20s who refuse to get real jobs. I've found that although everyone in the group has at least one of those characteristics, only a couple fit the full profile, and I like them, too.

After a first year of constantly asking myself what I was doing far away from home, I'm glad to say that I'm happy to be in Moldova. As I travel during my vacation and talk about my life, the Peace Corps and Moldova, I realize that there is no other way to create the memories and experiences I'm having.

Here's to my first successful year, and here's to another one for myself and for all of PCM 16.

La anul si multi ani!
