In my experience, as a PCV and as former Peace Corps staff, I can say that one of the most important things that people learn during their volunteer service is that they can't survive alone. Whether they lean on a host family, work counterpart, other PCVs or even (in rare cases) Peace Corps staff, PCVs, (and RPCVs) normally leave with a better ability to engage others in collaborative problem solving, motivating tams to move forward in a constructive and practical way. You can often tell the RPCV in a group because they are the first to ump in with getting the work done, and often are the best at convening a group.
Team building, engaging a group or a network, and leading in adversity are great skills to have in these times. mo surprise that Wayan is an RPCV !

Thank you! And yes, my PCV ethos is on display with Career Pivot
Yes, I met with Jonathan twice now. In fact, he was at the happy hour on Wednesday night. Great guy and we are looking at ways to work together.
