Introduction My name is Chris and I am a Peace Corps volunteer working in the youth development sector in Morocco. I have spent the duration of my service(which has now lasted for almost 2 years) on the edge of the Sahara desert in a small town in the country. I am 26 years old and have many interests, and seem to constantly discover more as I explore all of life's possibilities from a developing world perspective. I spent my undergrad studying communication with a PR focus, and didn't discover that I disliked it, and had no interest in pursuing a career in PR until my senior year. I enjoy people...talking with them, finding connections, and figuring them out. Something I also discovered my senior year in college is my love of travel. I studied abroad in London for a semester, traveled around most of Western Europe, and told myself that I couldn't ever stop traveling and discovering what the world has to offer. Thus, I now find myself in the Peace Corps, pursuing a career in international communication and development. I find that my life is currently interesting enough to write about and post on the internet...I hope you agree.
Interests travel, making music, reading, writing, comedy, anything outdoors, general exploration of new things, connecting with people through unique commonalities
