Just thinking out loud...

I'm thinking about joining the Peace Corps. I have my friend Kim to thank for that. She is leaving for Africa next month and I must say that I admire her for that. Well, her leaving got me thinking. I want to make a difference in this world. I'd love to work for an organization like the UN one day and working in the Peace Corps would give me some really good experience on my future resume. I don't know, I'm just thinking out loud though. Two years is a long time to be away from my friends and family but it would give me a chance to see a part of the world that I wouldn't necessarily get to see otherwise. I looked at my options on where I could go and they are looking for people to go to Eastern Europe and Russia. If I went there, I would get the chance to take maybe some weekend-type trips back to Prague. I don't know. I'm just thinking out loud at the moment.
