US Peace Corps Volunteers Thailand Group 114 10 wk Training Video
In this video I try to express the feeling of what it may be like to be in Peace Corps. This video was filmed during the training and home stay before actually becoming volunteers. You get an intensive training for 3-4 months. Learning customs, culture and language. You have a home stay experience for over 6 weeks. Somtimes these people become very good friends in the future. Then you get assigned and move to a new location after training. You do your job whatever field it is in. Many of us were English Teachers and local community Trainers. Also many are involved in community work. You also become good friends with many of the volunteer you meet in your group. We had a special bond with each of the volunteers we lived near. You may see them often as they may live near you or you may never see them again after training if you are far apart. You complete your service in two years and then return home to share your experience. Its hard but interesting and amazing, things you never would get to do see and eat! Skills you pickup and trades you learn.Helping others the whole time. Plus it's awesome to learn new cultures and languages. Full immersion makes it easy too! I have been a Peace Corps volunteer twice. It is amazing! you make no money but have an amazing experience. Its something you can't expect and its hard but fun and feels good to help other people. The work with community groups is some of the most rewarding. Tree planting, reforestation and recycling. Aids work communtiy libraries or therater groups many diffent options are available for secondary projects. After two years you have a final workshop "close of service" meeting to help ease you back into America. Help you with job placement or provide school opportunities as well.
