Follow me as I join "an extraordinary group of Americans who have sought the challenges that are unique to Peace Corps service: the opportunity to live in a different culture, to learn a new language, and to forge lasting relationships with the people of Peru and fellow Volunteers" (taken from the Peace Corps Volunteer Handbook)
Measures and Milestones
My scouring of the web found no standardized assessments for a Peace Corps Volunteer's growth, success, or change. Therefore, I've decided to establish various baselines and track any possible cambios (changes). My measures will be: my shoes, my physical attributes, my health, and my proficiency with "Mi Peru". I hope to monitor myself on 3 to 4 month intervals.
