Travels with a Backpack. Stories of a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer. Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Even though we were only in Vienna for less than four days, it seems like we fit in a weeks' worth of exploring and sightseeing. This is definitely thanks to our wonderful tour guides, Traude and Gerhart, who are distant relatives of mine. They were more than happy to spend three whole days with us to show us their beautiful city and we were so grateful for their assistance and hospitality. Hotel/hostel was t...

Travels with a Backpack: November 2011
http://travelswithabackpack.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Travels with a Backpack. Stories of a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer. Tuesday, November 1, 2011. I recently found the newspapers my mom saved from the day I was born. The USA Today, the Atlanta Journal and the Atlanta Constitution; all were dusty and faded sitting on the top shelf of my closet. The headline that struck me the most was this: “5 billionth human will be born today;” That could have been me! I, like many American children, grew up dragging my feet, not in love with the idea of going to schoo...

Travels with a Backpack: Packing for Turkey
http://travelswithabackpack.blogspot.com/2012/05/packing-for-turkey.html
Travels with a Backpack. Stories of a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer. Monday, May 7, 2012. I get to leave for Turkey in just three days! It's a little crazy just thinking about leaving for two weeks since we only recently moved in, but I'm excited nonetheless to have an adventure. This trip is for course credit with my Master's program, so the bulk of it is planned for me, however a friend and I are going five days early to see a little more of the country on our own. In a larger map. In a larger map.

Monday, December 24, 2012. Tidings of Comfort and Joy. In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.). And everyone went to their own town to register. So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born,.

Travels with a Backpack: Is That a Monkey?
http://travelswithabackpack.blogspot.com/2011/08/is-that-monkey.html
Travels with a Backpack. Stories of a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer. Thursday, August 4, 2011. Is That a Monkey? Recently I've been having one of those "you know you're a returned Peace Corps volunteer when" moments. The scenery appears to be "normal" as defined by western standards and I seem to be blending into the crowd when all of the sudden I say something like, "Is that a monkey? Normal trees in Germany where I thought I saw a monkey. The forest in Dangila, Ethiopia, filled with monkeys. View my c...
