When I tell people I am going into the Peace Corps, they usually ask me what on earth possessed me to do that. I usually say something along the lines of, “it just sounds like a lot of fun” or “I’ve wanted to do it forever.” Both statements are true.
I decided that I wanted to become a Peace Corps Volunteer (PCV) when I was a sophomore in high school. Lots of people say they want to join the Peace Corps, so my friends and family probably thought that I'd get over it.I never got over it. I've wanted to become a PCV for so long and finally, 7 years after deciding to join the Peace Corps, I am about to embark on my Peace Corps adventure in Paraguay.
