Is costing me a fortune . . . volunteering is expensive work. I have spent over $1,000 on hotel, flight, and (ironically enough) fundraising.

About Me
I am a Peace Corps Volunteer serving as an English teacher in the south of Thailand. The random ramblings within this blog in no way represent the views of the Peace Corps, its affiliates or the United States Government. They're my random ramblings and mine alone. Mwahaha.
That said, I'm into taking lots of pictures, stand-up comedy, and in general, enjoying life (which may or may not sometimes involve traveling).

Quotes
Anais Nin:
"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."
Jenny Kane, PCV 118. From "Recycle Love" article in Sticky Rice magazine:
"The relationships we create in the world, the love in essence that we put out in the world, on any particular day, is what life is about ... Love the pain, the tears, love the work of getting through each day. Love and, despite love, even, love again, and more."
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to give one's self... this is to have succeeded."

you had to spend money on fundraising? you should make cookies, then wrap them up in paper bags and write "girl scout cookies" on them. then sell 8 cookies for $27 a box (i hear that's the going rate).
ps. that's a fabulous sign in the background of the photo -- must have been an artist who made it!

spent money on train tickets to go to the group fundraising (and then money spent on hanging out in the city where the fundraising was done). my self-fundraising no. i just asked people for money.
