I arrived back to the States in August of 2013. I have relocated to the vibrant city of New Orleans and for the past year I have been working in advertising, eaten my weight in King Cake and have fested my way down the pot-holed streets of the Big Easy. I am currently in search of the best fried shrimp po-boy.
This blog held the stories and images I came across during my adventures in Cameroon, Africa working for the Peace Corps. It was a resource for friends and family to follow my whereabouts, and anyone else who may have stumbled upon me. I served for 27 months beginning in June of 2011 teaching Computer Literacy and English in Bandenkop, Cameroon.
Welcome.
