http://brielleanntravel.blogspot.com/2012/09/huancabamba-medical-checks-and-year-2.html
A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. September 10, 2012. Huancabamba, Medical Checks and Year 2 Starts. I’m sorry for my lack of posting. I have been a bit busy over this past month. If it weren’t for the incessant emails from my mother saying nothing more than “UPDATE BLOG PLEASE” I probably wouldn’t have gotten around to this. So, enjoy! We welcomed the 7 new volunteers from Peru 19 to Piura and then it was off to MEDICAL CHECKS! Year and celebrated the fact we were all still in Perú.

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. July 29, 2012. I landed on JFK’s runway and my brain still couldn’t comprehend what was going on. I was home? Or was home in Piura? This was my first time being back in the States and seeing family and friends in over a year of my service, and I was ready to take the time home to recarga mis pilas. I’m not going through every detail of my time home, but I’ll give you the overview. Of July in America. ‘MERICUH! However, my time home was more than necessary...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. June 20, 2012. I realized that I haven’t really given you guys an idea of what my day to day life is in Vice because of my site change. I.

Me: Well, my class was canceled. Me: There is no school today because of the Anniversary. Lucas: How did you find that out? Because I live in Pi...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. September 20, 2012. This is dedicated to anyone who has been around me when I’m hungry. You are all saints. Lately, I’ve been waking up TEMPRANITO. Break in the story:. To each her/his own. ). Let me preface this also by saying… this is not the first time this has happened. Rosa Is. Not. Home. Sure, I have tons of lettuce in the fridge and some oatmeal mom sent from home. Nothing I knew would satisfy the hunger I had. I pouted the whole way down t...8220;...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. April 28, 2012. New Site and a Clean SLATE. Be Prepared. This one is a little long- BUT WORTH IT. As most of you know I recently had a site change after 8 months of being at site. They also say, that you eventually have that moment where you fall in love with your site. I never had that moment with Tamarindo, but three weeks into Vice, and I finally understand what they were saying. She is about a five minute walk down the main street of Vice. Her nam...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. March 10, 2012. Call Me, Maybe? So, thank goodness for a friend of mine (cough cough Amanda Cuppi ) for being so involved in the Twitter world and for sending me this gem. Call Me, Maybe? I think this works for Peace Corps goals 2 and 3. I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.". Until next time. call me? I need your help. Any d...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. February 24, 2012. What I Wish I Wrote. This is completely taken from a blog of another Peace Corps volunteer serving in Africa. It's a perfect combination of humor and the truth. The Real Peace Corps. I romanticize this experience as a function of my personality but also as a coping mechanism. Peace Corps is really hard. So what should you expect? Nothing is the best answer. Expect nothing and you will be pleasantly surprised. Every experience is...To do...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. July 26, 2011. Ancash and the really long FBT blog post. Photo Credit: Katy Halasz. As you can see, Ancash really is better. I really don’t even know where to begin. It was time for Field Based Training (where we finally get to leave Lima to work in the field and see other volunteer's sites) for Peru 17 and Youth Development got split into three groups. My group got extremely lucky… we got ANCASH! Once the hunt was over my group headed back to the hostal ...

A PEACE of my mind. My 27 month Peruvian journey. September 30, 2011. Wherever your heart is, that is where you'll find your treasure.". The Alchemist. Thank you, Paulo Coelho for delivering a masterpiece. I'd be leaving behind family and friends for a long time. Maybe this isn't the best decision for my future? I was filled with the typical "maybe's" and "what if's". The Alchemist was an amazing book and I encourage everyone to get a copy of it and read it. I promise you it will be worth it. I'll be kee...
