Lynn's New Adventures: Playing Tour Guide :)

http://lynns-new-adventures.blogspot.com/2010/02/playing-tour-guide.html

Playing Tour Guide :). Since my blog is not supposed to be about traveling, but rather about my time in the Peace Corps as a Volunteer, I do not want to write about MY vacation. Rather, I asked my dad to write about THEIR experience here, and he kindly obliged. So, following is a short account of what we did, what they saw, and what he felt about their experience. Enjoy. White knuckles, closed eyes and repeated looks of disbelief. After further reflection it causes me to recant my previous belief tha...

Lynn's New Adventures: August 2010

http://lynns-new-adventures.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html

I just finished making a video, targeted at new volunteers, that explains one of my main projects at work. If you wanted a better glimpse of what we're working on, here it is! I hope to be making more videos soon, as Movie Maker is really fun and sort of addicting. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I am a life-loving, adventure-seeking, knowledge-thirsting, nature-enjoying, people-friending Peace Corps Volunteer in the Philippines. Those of the United States Peace Corps. Lynn Debilzen, PCT.

Lynn's New Adventures: March 2010

http://lynns-new-adventures.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Peace Corps Philippines recently conducted the second annual Program Advisory Committee sessions. To showcase the work of the Children, Youth, and Families program, a fellow Volunteer made a pretty awesome video:. Happy Fire Prevention Month! March is Fire Prevention Month around the Philippines. There are banners everywhere claiming individual's and businesses' commitment to the cause, although I haven't seen any education going on about the issue. Perhaps the prevention is somewhere? So, back to the bo...

Lynn's New Adventures: I will have you know...

http://lynns-new-adventures.blogspot.com/2010/01/i-will-have-you-know.html

I will have you know. Been busy though - I started my professional paper for my Master's, and while I originally planned to only dedicate one day per week to it, I find myself anxious to work on it twice a week, which usually takes up any free days. It is interesting how mentally exhausting active reflection on this life-changing experience can be! Keep working away.it will get finished! Had a wonderful time in Costa Rica!

http://iyfd.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Monday, November 10, 2008. As Cohort V begins work on the grant writing aspect of Otto Koester's Applied Skills course, we thought it would be good to take a look at some of the funds that IYFD students and professors have secured in the past. Several proposals submitted by students in Otto’s grant-writing class have been funded in the past two years, providing needed support for a variety of community agencies. These include:. Julie Schillreff (Cohort III). Kendra Jimenez (Cohort IV). The Intercultural ...
