\t\t\t\tImages offer a chance to\u00a0peak inside someone else\u2019s world.\u00a0 Often, they provide the best means\u00a0for understanding an event in the past, or an experience beyond our own comprehension.\u00a0 This is especially true\u00a0when\u00a0it comes\u00a0to the many exciting and exotic opportunities encountered by Peace Corps volunteers.<\/p>\n
Reading about these experiences, or hearing RPCVs recall stories from the past, doesn’t\u00a0convey\u00a0the same understanding as seeing it with your own eyes–even\u00a0if that means through a photograph.\u00a0 While they may have faced difficult challenges\u00a0and unpleasant\u00a0moments,\u00a0Peace Corps volunteers also witnessed beautiful landscapes, sampled local cuisine, and embraced traditional cultures and customs.<\/p>\n
From ordinary to the unusual, images in the PCCA depict the wide variety of Peace Corps volunteers\u2019 experiences.\u00a0\u00a0Enjoy a few of the images\u00a0found in\u00a0the collection.<\/p>\n
