How much do they pay? What will you be doing?
Hi Everybody!!!
Peace Corps covers all travel costs, i get $10 a day for a living stipend (that is a lot in Panama . . . it will cost about $100 a month to live . . . ) and I get a $6000 stipend when I leave.
There are lots of different programs in P.C. I am doing Community Environmental Conservation, CEC. For the next three months I will be in training, and then I move to a small community with 70% or more of the population below poverty level. I will then meet people in the community and start/help out on some projects, but I don´t know exactly what until I get there and do a community assesment.
Adios from Panama!

cultural confrontation and exchange is one of the best things that can happen to everyone and expecially to a musician.
