When Paul started his journey with the United States Peace Corps, in 2000, he had no inkling how much he would enjoy the work involved in being a Peace Corps Volunteer and the lifestyle he would enjoy for over a decade and a half. Twenty years after his first tour in El Salvador, we discuss his experiences in five very different countries working in Agroforestry, Health and Community Development. Through his stories we learn how he became an effective Peace Corps Volunteer making an impact on individuals, groups and landscapes.
