Listen "Unseen Sides of Lesotho - A Peace Corps Perspective"
Episode Synopsis
I love talking with Peace Corps Volunteers (PCVs) because they offer such a unique perspective on a country. Because they're stationed in one country for two to three years, they are both insider and an outsider.
They're an insider because they usually:
Live in villages
Learn the local language
Hang out with the locals so much that the locals start behaving "normally" with them
However, at the same time, a PCV they are outsiders for obvious reasons. Sometimes they can blend in. For example, a black American can blend in most of Africa.
However, the blond and blue-eyed Alicia Carter and Brandy Hart had no hope of blending into Lesotho. They were both Peace Corps Volunteers in Lesotho, a small country surrounded by South Africa.
Alicia and Brandy both extended their two-year stays because they loved it.
I ask them about their experiences in Lesotho.
At the end of the podcast, we take a quick tour of Alicia's rondoval.

Promoting Health Access Sumbawa
One of WanderLearn's top patrons, Kathy Kennedy Enger, asked me to draw attention to Health Access Sumbawa. I am happy to promote this remarkable nonprofit. In 2014, Jack Kennedy founded the organization to bring malaria control and healthcare to remote, impoverished communities. It started on the remote island of Sumbawa, Indonesia. Since then, it's expanded thanks to generous donations. Visit their website to learn more and to donate: https://healthaccesssumbawa.org
