👋 Hi, and welcome

This is a permanent “Hello”…

…considering that about half of this site's visitors are new and stumble here looking for the Peace Corps discounts page (it’s right here).

Whether you're considering to join the Peace Corps, have already been accepted, or are simply a parent trying to understand what the hell your child is getting themself into, this blog is here to help.

On the homepage you’ll find helpful evergreen articles on preparing for Peace Corps service. A good place to start is with "The Peace Corps Application Process in 2023." If you're further along, check out "How to Prepare for Peace Corps Service" or "How Peace Corps Volunteers Handle Student Loans."

I'm happy you're here. I wish you the best of luck on this journey.

Oh yeah, for the Peace Corps lawyers…this is a personal blog ran by one individual human. This site is not affiliated with the U.S. Peace Corps Agency in any way. This is no more than a respectful appreciation blog for an organization and experience that changed my life. Please don’t sue me.
