There were plenty of others who went by themselves and got jobs teaching English or helping with water projects or other help needed. I took a job with a reliable teaching center to teach conversational English in Seoul, S. Korea. I have never had a better job. I traveled the country, made many friends and had the experiences of twenty life-times! I went by myself and was 56 years old, rented a room from a wonderful Korean woman whose husband was trying to earn a living in the States, and made wonderful friends--knowing no one when I got there! You need to live there, living the same way the people live. You need to stay longer than a year. You need to tough it out and take a lot of interesting surprises! For my job, I needed a college education, but I knew other westerners who didn't have that and were working and living there. I am now 75 and I probably wouldn't be able to take the Buddhist Temple subway steps, or I would go back to the most wonderful job I ever had in my entire life! Conversational English didn't require any tests or paperwork, but we still worked hard. On Global LEAD: Good idea, but going to other countries to help out wasn't just with the Peace Corps.

As usual, Nicole did a great job interviewing, asking the tough questions, trying to poke holes in this program and address the potential problems, but they answered each concern with class and charisma! Good luck in Cape Town! I was extremely impressed with these two young men, Garrett and Kevin!
