Kenya Peace Corps Blogs

Submitted by Sandy Seppala on Sat, 2007-05-12 00:53.
Let us call your attention to www.peacecorpsjournals.com, a site with country entries to hundreds, if not thousands of blogs written by serving Peace Corps Volunteers and returned Peace Corps Volunteers. As expected, the subject matter of most blogs deals with current service or reminisces of life as a PCV. The Kenya listing contains links to several dozen interesting sites. Take time to browse them. We recommend that if you are blogging about Kenya, list yourself there.

No one will be surprised to learn that Peace Corps management has “rules” about how PC computer equipment can be used and about content. Most rules, however, are simply common sense and courtesy that ought not to offend. Check it out.

I happen to be one of the aforementioned bloggers currently serving in Kenya with my wife Jennie. We live in a remote Masai village just north of the Tanzania border. It makes for some interesting stories, so please drop by and read about us. I can't promise that we are always ubercerebral, but we do have a great time out here in the bush.

Greetings Friends of Kenya! Just a note to let you all know that my son, Rashid Khan, is currently going through the Peace Corps application process. He has made it all the way to the medical/dental part and has his fingers crossed that he will receive an invitation soon.

It was thirty years ago that I was doing exactly the same thing. Filling out the forms, waiting, more forms, more waiting. it was all well worth the wait. My Peace Corps experience (Kenya 77-79) was one of the best two years of my life. I feel very fortunate to have served in such a culturally rich country.

I'm looking for the rest of my group...anyone know where they are?

All the best,

Joy Gallagher
